On my 'about me' section of my 'other blog,' I write about my cousin's influence on me.
I tried to condense it to fit it in to the post.
If I had more space and time, I would tell a hundred stories about growing up with sisters and girl cousins (all of whom shared a birthday party). I would post pictures of little girls squeezed in close on grandma's porch swing. I would tell about all the things I followed Amy in doing (Big 12 schooling, teaching, black/white flooring- okay, not the flooring- but I wish!).
You can go back to my very first blog post and see how I copy off of my cousin. (When I started, she was the only blogger I knew in real life!)
So while I try to be cool like Amy, she's actually way cooler (and she somehow managed to escape the Hughes nose). She has an awesome photo blog. And she's so patient in teaching me tons of great stuff!
I was so blessed to get to spend the weekend with her and her family (R too!). I'll be posting (tons) more pics from our weekend soon. But until then, I wanted to say THANKS for the fun weekend, Amy!! I always learn so much from you!
