The First Cousin Council Field Trip

A special ForWhatIt'sWorthless recognition to the first CC member who can name the location of this outing. Double kudos for naming the occasion (One member appears to have bladder control issues).

Happy 35 Nate! From the early morning drive to the hospital with your mom and dad to the freezing trek through Madison to celebrate your graduation to the enlightening video of lions eating their young, you've always kept life interesting! If we were closer to Madison, I'd love to stop by and hoist a a pint in your honor (in a strictly medicinal sort of way of course!).

Happy 40th you crazy lovebirds! Living with y'all for two and a half years in Texas was one of the most formative parts of my life and left me with wonderful memories. Trips to Goodwill, shrimp in a jar, the Terrell drive-in, Blackjack Baptist Church, chicken-n-rice for Sunday dinner. Of course, you'd only been married less than four years, so it was also a learning experience in how the whole marriage-couple-relating-to-one-another thing works. Thanks for the great example to follow. And I'll never tell about the other things I learned. Cross my heart.
