Cousins

We miss so much living away from family.  It does grieve us.  We long to have family nights where our parents and siblings and all the kids come over for dinner and dessert and we play games or talk until late at night.

Just recently we have gotten a little glimpse of that life.  It's all because of Alex.  Alex is my cousin, Pam's eldest son.  He is now a sophomore at UT.  We are over the top excited when he is able to come over for dinner and hang out.  The kids ask if he can come over often.  We love how he's just jumped into our hearts and we think and pray for him often.

The last time he visited he brought his girlfriend Kelsey with him.  She's a doll and perfect for Alex.  Now, we have 2 college kids to grasp a hold of and beg to come over for dinner and "play time" with the kids.  Here's Alex and Hannah dancing up a storm on the Wii game Just Dance.   He's forever Hannah's buddy now that he danced beside her.  How could we love him more?
