Keyhole Effect

I came across this while on Facebook. This is my cousin and one of her best friends. I thought that it was a great demonstration of the Keyhole Effect used correctly. This image is eye-catching and says a lot about my cousin just through her eyes. I'm glad that I came across this image by happenstance.

Trampoline

My niece came by for an hour of play with my daughter. As you can tell from the picture, they had a lot of fun. I am so grateful that we have the opportunity as parents to have the kids play outside and be active. The weather was great, and I enjoyed the outside as much as they did.

Savannah

I am glad that my daughter has a great cousin who is artistic. My daughter looks up to her so much. My niece Savannah wanted to go to college station to be a veterinarian. She decided to attend Our Lady of the Lake University. My daughter loves animals and wants to go to OLLU when she goes to college. It is so important for kids her age to start thinking about college. I decided to go on a whim during my senior year.

Cheerleaders

Nadiyah's other cousins from Eagle Pass came to San Antonio this weekend for a cheer-leading competition. Nadiyah used to be in tumbling a couple of years back and even competed one time in a national competition. Her cousins placed third overall. They were disappointed, but they did very well. I am grateful that her cousins came to see her this weekend and that they hold similar interests. They are more like friends than they are cousins.

Starr

This is Starr, my daughter's cousin. She was born in Dallas, Texas. Her family lives in Louisiana. Her parents are separated and had trouble keeping her going to school, so Nadiyah's (my daughter) uncle took her in. Both of her parents live in Eagle Pass, Texas. I am grateful that Starr is going to school and that Nadiyah has someone to play with on the weekends, since she is an only child. I am very grateful that Starr and Nadiyah are cousins.
