Congratulations Molly & Marissa!

Here are my cousins' kids, Molly and Marissa, at the 4-H fair with their ribbons and their swine. That is the correct elegant word for pig, right? I cannot think straight right now. It is almost midnight, and I probably should be in bed instead of posting pictures on my blog. However, I wanted to make sure that I gave them props for the AWESOME job that they did and congratulate them on their ribbons.

Molly and Marissa live in Arizona. They are on my mom's side of the family. I met them for the first time a few years back (I think it was three years ago, but I cannot remember). They are the sweetest girls ever, and David absolutely adored them. For weeks and possibly even months on end after we spent time with them, David would talk about them and ask if they were coming over to play with him. At that time, he didn't understand the concept of distance and the whole idea of people living in different states.

Congratulations again girls and hopefully I will see you either this summer or next winter (I hope to make a trip to Arizona when it is FREEZING here in Minnesota!)
