The Cousins Are Here!

Happy Labor Day Weekend Everyone!!! My parents are off exploring the California coast and Hayley, Tyler, and the boys are visiting Marc and Peg in Denver. On the Shrader side of things, that leaves me. My dad's brother Jim and his family are in town visiting some friends. Jim, Anne, Elle, Karson, and Yale are here for the weekend and we were able to meet them for lunch. It was a wonderful time to catch up and see how all the family in Iowa is holding up. It sounded like Jim and Anne are having a wonderful time in Arizona and the kids don't want to go home. Probably because school starts on Tuesday. They went shopping, to a Diamondbacks game, and the ASU/NAU football game. It was so nice to have family around for a change. I was very sad that everyone else wasn't here. But here are some pictures of my cousins. We pray they have a safe trip home. Love you guys and see you again soon!


These are my cousins- Elle, Me, Karson, and Yale

A Place to Remember

I wanted to have a place that I could remember all the things the girls do as they are growing up. They change so fast and life is just a little to busy to always make time to write it all down. I hope that one day, they will be able to read all the good times we shared and remember some of their own.
