Have you ever had experiences in your life that are really really really great for SO many reasons that you really can't put into words? That's what this past week was for me.
I can't remember a time when I was so upset and emotional about coming home from a vacation. I can't remember a time when there were so many things broken in such a short amount of time. I can't remember a time when so many of the Register males were in one place. I can't remember a time when I laughed so hard at so many insults directed my way.
I'm thankful for cousins - whatever kind. I'm thankful for similarities in childhoods and shared traditions. It's a wonderful feeling to feel as if you KNOW someone when you've only met them a few times. I'm grateful for the eternal nature of families. I'm thankful that I have the chance to love people so that it makes my heart hurt.
I don't know what else to say. It's hard to put some feelings and thoughts into words, isn't it?

Kayla, I'm so glad you had such a great time. I too am grateful for eternal families... even grateful for the weird members of my eternal family! :) Love ya girl!
Looks like it was a blast.
I'm really happy.
Was this a Seattle trip? Glad you had a wonderful time.
Sure missed the heck out of ya, but sooo glad you had a good time. Sorry about the losing bet and broken glasses. Welcome back!
What do you call a register vacation? Registration! I love your blog b/c it always has lots of words about how Kayla is doing...not just events, but ponderings and what not. We love you Kayla
So glad it was wonderful. So glad for families, too!
Great pictures. It sounds like a great time. I am glad you got back safe... I share your same feelings as far as the cousins go. I have tons of cousins and even though we have never lived in the same country or state I have a closeness with them that is unreal. Eternal Families are the best, we just have to work really hard to keep them that way. :)
Love the pics! I'm glad you had such a great time!!
Keela, you're the best! Thanks for your thoughts! Love you and welcome back!
