It was fun to watch M & MR become good buddies as they shared a room. It was fun to watch L & her similarly named cousin spend time together - and want to spend time with me because all three of us share a name. It was fun to watch A & Aa have a ball together. It was fun to see Young M and Young T and learn more about their personalities and the things that make them characteristically them. And Baby S is pretty awesome herself. The oldest cousin B is also a delight. They are all growing up so quickly! All the girls are beautiful; all the boys are handsome. (Not kidding... we're a good-looking bunch!)
My favorite parts - early morning scripture study on the balcony while M & MR read The Friend on my iPhone - hugs from Miss E (given in abundance!) - the view from the top of Bible Point - silk painting - talking in the hall with my fabulous sisters in law - Young T's giggles when he lets you tickle him - watching Aa and L be soft and gentle with Baby S - late-night Poohead games - a campfire after a hailstorm, s'mores, and watching everyone get the giggles - just hanging with the family - awesome hats and plenty of sunscreen.
And now I will leave you with this view from the top of the mountain near our gathering place:
Aah, the beauty of the desert mountains. :-)
