The Cousins

NPayne's cousin and her two daughters came to visit this weekend.....all the way from Louisiana! We took photos in the snow, and I got a little carried away with the whimsy. We ate King Cake for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.....at least I did; and we heard "WHO DAT?" a lot! Mostly we had a great time being together.


NPayne's cousin is a breat cancer surivor....
yes that young woman in the picture above had breast cancer!
Breast cancer is not picky.....get a mammogram!
When she was going through chemo and completely bald,
we received a Christmas card from them. It was a picture of her minus hair, with
one daughter on each side.....and it simply said "CELEBRATE LIFE!"
That photo is forever etched in my mind, as well as, in my keepsakes.
We celebrate her life!
