We love our Mexico Cousins!

Kara brought her kiddos up from Mexico for a visit. My boys were so excited to see their "Mexico Cousins!"

They wanted to go and see the planes at the Air and Space Museum.

We were there right before they closed, and they needed some extra help folding the flag. It's a good thing we just happened to have Boy Scout with us...good job Riley-man!

Whenever I see Anson, I get a preview of Boyd in a couple of years. They may be cousins, but they look and bonded like brothers!

And look...ITS A GIRL!

Austin was very excited to show us his big guns!

We love our Mexico Cousins! Come back and stay with us again soon!

I love Raising my Boys:

"You are home to him. When he learns to walk, he will wobble a few feet away from you and then come back, then wobble away a little farther and then come back. When he tries something new, he will look for your proud smile. When he learns to read, he will repeat the same book to you twenty times in a row, because you're the only one who will listen that many times. When he plays his sport, he will search for your face in the stands. When he is sick, he will call you. When he really messes up, he will call you. When he is grown and strong and tough and big and he feels like crying, he will come to you; because a man can cry in front of his mother without feeling self-conscious. Even when he grows up and has a new woman in his life and gets a new home, you are still his mother; home base, the ever constant, like the sun. Know that in your heart and everything else will fall into place."

"Example is an important characteristic of a boy’s life." President Spencer W. Kimball

"Mothers of little boys work from son up til son down"

"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware. The tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered around the house, the piles of laundry lying around to be tackled, will disappear all too soon. And, you will to your surprise, miss them profoundly." President Thomas S. Monson

"No other success can compensate for failure in the home."

"The greatest work you will ever do will be within the walls of your home."

"Motherhood is about raising & celebrating the child you have, not the child you thought you would have. It's about understanding that he is exactly the person he is supposed to be, and that if you're lucky he just might be the teacher that turns you into the person you're supposed to be." - Joan Ryan

"You are part of my existence, part of myself. You have been in every line I have ever read...You have been the embodiment of every graceful fancy that my mind has ever become acquainted with." -Dickens
