More cousins!

Wow...we have a lot of family! It's so much fun, though.

Nathan's cousin, Tracy, and her family came down to visit from Mississippi a few weeks ago, and we were able to run out to see them for a few hours before they headed home again. It was nice, since it had been a really long time since we'd had a chance to visit.

Tracy and her husband, Bret, have three kids, so there were quite a few munchkins running around in Aunt Marsha's house. Four from our family, three from Tracy's family, two from Timothy and Tiffany, and another little girl (the daughter of Tracy's best childhood friend). Ten kids total - ten very young kids. It was a little chaotic. While we were there, we were trying desperately to figure out how the whole "first," "second," and "third" cousin thing works between all the generations and family branches, and I'm not sure we ever got it. Personally, I think I need a flow chart or something. They're just cousins. :)

 Yeah, they wouldn't stand still. This was our best attempt, and there are even a few missing.

L to R: Nicky, Kent, the little girl whose name escapes me right now (help!), Bailey, Zoe, and Ethan.

Not pictured: Christopher, Colby, Devan, and Anna.

Aunt Marsha and Aunt Libby do NOT enjoy having their picture taken.

We do it anyway, because we love them.

Anna is in this picture, too (little piggy...always eating).

Aunt Libby and Aunt Marsha hadn't had a chance to hold Anna yet, and I was happy that they were able to finally get their hands on her. We had a little trouble getting her to stop crying for Aunt Marsha (I think she was hungry, go figure), but Anna eventually calmed down and she was able to hold her for a long time.

Look how sweet. :)

Awww.

 Tracy got to hold her, too.

 Tracy and Bret with Christopher. So stinkin' cute!

We had a great visit with family, and I hope we get to see them all again really soon!

Oh, and we also discovered that Nicholas LOVES cheesecake. Direct quote: "Mama, you have to try this cake with the white icing on top. It's really dood (good)."

Nom nom nom.

(Side note: Aunt Libby makes the best marinated cheese and seven-layer dip EVER. That is all.)
