Week 35 - Cousins

Week 35 Picture

Jay's family got a little bit bigger this week! On Saturday, my sister Jessie and brother in law Bucky had their first child, a beautiful, healthy little girl named Jaina Marie Johns. This baby was a long time coming and is lucky to be entering the world into a great family that will love her and care for her for the rest of her life. Jessie and Bucky are truly wonderful people. New parenthood looks good on them.

On my end, I'm glad that Jay will have so many cousins at or near his age. Family get togethers are always more fun for kids when they have people their age to share them with. I'm also glad that I get the chance to meet the new baby soon. This weekend, Kimbre and I are headed back to Colorado to spend a few days with family and friends and meet the new baby. It's well timed too. I'm having a hard time getting my engine going and getting motivated to get the things done that I need to get done. Even this blog has been suffering a bit, as is probably evident by the recent dip in quality. It's getting to the point where I can no longer blame it on the move. I think this trip will help me in finishing this transition. There's just something about comin home to a place after a trip that well, makes it feel like home.

Really though, it's hard to complain. I'm blessed to be able to call so many places home.
