Cousins

We had a wedding shower for our beautiful sweet cousin Elizabeth. She is getting married in about a month in the Portland Temple to Jeff. They are such a cute couple and have a bright future ahead of them. We had the shower at our home and we just had adults come which made it a lot easier to actually have a conversation with someone. We ate, opened presents, and got to know Jeff a little better.
I am grateful for cousins and the unique relationship they bring into my life. I really don't have a really close cousin my age so on the Young side I treasure the opportunity to spend some time with them. I remember actually babysitting Elizabeth and now she is getting married! There is something neat, though, about getting together with people that have the same blood running through them as you do and when you talk there is a special connection that never goes away.


Here are Elizabeth and Jeff opening presents

Anne and Eliza were the only kids around. They were so good and ate their dinner up in the play room. They were so excited to eat up there. They even put a table cloth on their play table and made there own party!

We were so excited to welcome a new cousin to the Schwitzer family... Emily! She is such a pretty baby and we are excited to have close girl cousin for own baby girl Lucy. ( Who should be coming in any day.) Congrats to Josh, Sara, and Ryan and we can't wait to take more pictures and spend more time with our new cousin!
