My cousin, Doug, has the cutest daughter, Hannah. I finally got to meet her this weekend. Wow, just look at those beautiful blue eyes.

It makes me feel old to see my younger cousin with a child...but the two of them look so adoreable, don't you agree? We decided that Hannah is my first cousin, once removed. I have no idea if that's right, but it sounds good enough to me.

Like her father, Hannah is very mellow. She didn't get fussy once. I'm sure her mother has a different opinion, but I was in awe of how fun and laid back she was.

Aunt Patty dug out some old baby albums so we could compare baby photos. I thought she looked a lot like Patty and a bit of Doug. She's a beautiful girl.

Mary and I headed over to Uncle Bill and Aunt Patty's for some family time. We had, what I would proclaim as the best French Toast breakfast EVER!!! Rosie came over to see us, so we had a little photoshoot going on.

It was so great to see them. I miss them terribly.

Todd and Diane had a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception despite it being a super freezing day in Columbus.

I have to give Brian the title of digital camera master because my technique was less than steller...guess the lighting wasn't the best.

I acutally got paid for making a scrapbook page! Whooohooo! Well, technically this wasn't the first time I got paid for a page, but this is the first time I've had one in print.

It's in the new Creating Keepsake's Idea Book and it was cool to see my work in there (it's on the bottom right of the magazine that I'm holding in my best Price Is Right girly pose).

The page is about how we ruined this beautiful cake for my father by putting 60 candles on it. AND he actually blew them all out! My father's face looks a bit red in the magazine, but hey, you can't have everything perfect.

Wow, she's 24 today! Hard to believe.

Happy Birthday, Cat...I hope you have a wonderful day.

I miss you!
