Some college kids party it up in Miami for Spring Break. Others take a Caribbean Cruise. (Hello Chocolate-Covered little sister!)
But I am the luckiest girl of all, because I get to spend Spring Break this year with the cutest kids ever: my cousins!

Hmmm, something’s wrong. They look too tame in the picture.
This is more like it. 🙂

Scrapbook page of the day:
















Aw, adorable cousins!
On my mom’s side I am the oldest of 10 grandchildren. And the oldest girl is 10 years younger than me! I feel a little bit left out as all the boys are around the same age and all the girls are around the same age, except me.
But it’s fun to have little girl cousins running around, the youngest is 5 and she’s adorable 🙂
I have a cousin the same age as me. We were basically like sisters growing up!
I love your scrap book! I really want to start my own. I was in Michael’s the other day and they have such cute things for scrap-booking!
I’m definitely not the spring break partying type. I’m at home starting my blog, doing PT for runner’s knee, and waiting to hear back from colleges. Were you stressed out during the college process? It’s kind of hard to imagine you as stressed.
And gosh, I’m surprised you haven’t asked us our bra sizes. It’s a totally socially acceptable question, Katie.
(hopefully my sarcasm is detectable on the internet…)
I have 27 cousins, 5 of us were born within 5 months of each other so that was nice at school, we are all a very similar age so school holidays were always fun too! 🙂
haha i’m sure the creepers will come out for the formspring questions. bra size?? what’s next.. i’m scared LOL.
your cousins are ADORABLE! your family has killer geners 🙂
on my dad’s side i don’t have any 🙁 but i have 7 on my mom’s but they’re all older and live far away. you’re so lucky!!
i went on a 7-day cruise last week for spring break! SO FUN! totally out of my comfort zone (lots of indulging on pina coladas, beer, icecream, pizza and dancing every night) but totally worth it. you only live once i guess 🙂
I don’t have an official spring break (since I’m not a student), but I’m taking tomorrow off from work and going to Chicago with Lucas! Can’t wait!
My cousins are all way younger and I feel more like their “cool aunt”. My fav cousin is 10 years my junior, but she’s a lot of fun and I <3 her so much! 🙂
I love reading your formspring answers, but don't worry — I'm not the one asking super personal questions! I tried to make my own account so you can who I am but I think the site hates me, lol. I'm glad you like my Chocolate-Covered Fun Run idea…I would sign up in a heart beat!
Andrea:
Sheesh, you really ARE like my sister! (She’s on a cruise right now)
Andrea, your sweet comments always make me smile 🙂
Jessica:
LOL that fun run question was you??? I thought that was the best idea ever! In fact, I haven’t stopped thinking about it! Now I want to expand the idea to having them feed the runners chocolate cake at the end. You know, instead of the usual bagel and banana spread? 🙂
P.S. The site hates me too. Often, it makes me sign in multiple times, tells me the server is down, doesn’t let me on at all, doesn’t let me answer questions… so it’s not just you!
Oh my gosh that poor substitute!!! Ahahah, that story is hilarious. As a fromer sub, I would have been mortified (although, I wouldn’t have put myself in that situation…how did an 8 year old know what a virgin was anyway??!)
Your cousins are adorable. I have cousins all my age – they were my best friends growing up. 🙂
Ok, so I’m going to sound like a TOTAL creeper…but I read all your formspring questions and was shocked at some of the ones you got lol. I just thought it was interesting because I can relate to the whole vegan/runner/college thing.
One person asked if you had osteoporosis? haha WHAT
Katie:
Oh he was a pretty naughty boy!!
