Cousin in love...

 One of the main reasons we headed south was to jump on over to Louisiana for Greg to do the baptism for his cousin Ryane's baby Liam... She is Greg's cousin, but I am so blessed to call her one of my dearest friends.  We literally headed over to their place Friday morning and had to leave less than 24 hours later... 

But it was so worth it!!!  Ryane and I stayed up way too late into the night making food, burning pigs in a blanket, laughing and catching up... Love Love Love her and her family so much!!!

Greg did Ryane and Blake's daughter's baptism in his parents yard 2 years ago... so we did the same this go around.  It was so special... just close family and friends and totally private in their gorgeous back yard...

 This Picture does not do this tree justice... It is hugely wide and totally covered in green fern... BEAUTIFUL... Quite the handiwork of God:)
Ryane and Blake are both pilots... Blake's uncle called to tell him that he was going to fly over and drop cotton candy out of his plane for the kids.  (Can you see the little blue bag to the right of the plane?) How cool was that?  Literally about 10 minutes later there he was flying by REALLY low and sending down the cotton candy... You should have seen the kids running.  It was really fun!

We were so honored to be able to be a part of Liam's special day and to be able to have the quick chance to spend time with them... When you live away from all of your family... these are precious times to be treasured!:)
