A fantastic \u00e2\u20ac\u0153triple-date\u00e2\u20ac\u009d with Tony, Dee Dee, John, and Kim. A wonderful dinner with a movie on each side! (go see the Bourne Ultimatum\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s gooood)<\/p>\n<p>3. Speaking of our dinner\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6Drinking a yummy \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Blue Violet\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and watching Randy eat his \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Tuna Poke\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. This was NOT McDonalds.<\/p>\n<p>4. Cousins Day. 16 kids. Ages 2 to 16. 3 adults, 1 house, 24 hours. Nana and Paw Paw, have you recovered yet?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1288\/1323732487_a037a09661.jpg\" width=\"445\" height=\"277\" align=\"bottom\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Hugging cousins<\/p>\n<p>5. Randy beats his brother Tony in basketball\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6again. Randy\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s punishment? Five minutes in the dreaded wet sauna!<\/p>\n<p>6. Getting lost while hiking and exploring at Kim and John\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s new house. Once we found our way out, we checked out the backyard. Most of you won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t get that one ;)<\/p>\n<p>7. Seeing my sweet grandmom, who still seems as young as she did when I spent nights with her as a child.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1278\/1324625314_15d3b057ce.jpg\" align=\"bottom\" \/><\/p>\n<p>4 Generations\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6Grandmom, Dad, Me, kiddos<\/p>\n<p>8.

Hanging out with Randy\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Mom at her house and at the mall (you should see my cute new belt\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6). Ann, your new furniture and house look great!!<\/p>\n<p>10. Having an amazing Sunday morning, re-connecting with our great friends at Grace Church.<\/p>\n<p>**11. I know, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s only supposed to be 10. But, we came home to a VERY stinky house. We finally realized that a breaker had flipped, turning off the freezer in our garage. We had meat in there\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6and fish. Not the welcome home I wanted! But, we now have a very empty and clean freezer. Now, to get rid of the smell\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The kids in their assigned yellow tees for Cousins Day Here is our \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Cousins Day\u00e2\u20ac\u009d weekend trip to NC in the form of our own TOP 10\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6in no certain order. 1.
