Isabella had a really great time getting to know her cousins. Jackson is six months younger than her and they really hit it off. Izzy was a little possessive of her toys, but when they got past that, they were really cute together. Izzy also really loved running through the house trying to get away from 4 year-old Preston and into Maddy's protective arms.
I really have to give a huge shout out to my sister, Amy. I was able to be reminded of the reasons why I look up to her as a mother. I am amazed at the patience she has with her children and the way she finds every opportunity to teach them. She is so good at setting aside other things to spend one-on-one quality time with each of them. Her discipline is consistent and her kids respond so well. Ame, I want you to know that you are my inspiration and I strive to be like the great mother you are!
Last of all, the reason for a few days of fun with our cousins was the blessing of our handsome little man. Justin did a really great job and it makes me so grateful that he is able to exercise the power of the priesthood. He is such a great example to his family. He grandparents and aunt and uncle and cousins were able to attend the blessing and come over afterwards to hang out. We really enjoyed ourselves. It always nice to have an excuse to get family together. I wish I would've taken more pictures that day, but it was pretty crazy. I did manage these two.

What a beautiful family you have
That outfit is darling. What a special day. It is really exciting to have family around. I can't belive how old Amy's kids are.
