Cousins Everywhere!

Today was a counsintastic day. This morning the boys and I were joined by big cousin Shannon - the four of us went to see big cousin Fritz kick basketball butt for STA. Serious, I was so proud of Fritz. This might come as a surprise to many of you, but I am not considered a Basketball Guru, BUT even I could see that Fritz had one of the key games of his career. I've never seen a kid so deeply present in every moment of a sporting event (or anything for that matter). He really showed everyone what it means to work hard and step up - I'm thinking this will carrying him far off the basketball court. Way to go Fritz.

At the game was a plethora of other midsized cousins - Seamus was in heaven. The boys then spent the afternoon with more Reagan cousins and a sprinkling of Waldvogel ones too. He looks spent tonight.

We are capping off the day with a serving of biggest cousin Carl. He has graciously offered to babysit for the boys tonight - while James and I "tear it up" with some Best Buy folks. Every relative that I told this to - asked me if Carl was on Spring Break. Folks, he's got a Master's Degree, a well paying job in MINNEAPOLIS, and a pretty darn serious girl friend. The strange thing is not that he's home - it's that he's more of an adult than ME.

For all you grandmas out there - here's a photo from tonight. The boys are so Irish their bath water is GREEN. Love to you all!
