Saturday is a Special Day...

it's the day we...go on fun dates. Saturday afternoon I have a date with my best friend's cousin Alex. He's actually a NICE guy. That in itself is a miracle, especially if you go to my high school. Updates to come later...
I've had the oppotunity recently to just "hang out" with my cousin David. This last weekend I met his girlfriend Katie and absolutely adore her. I love growing up and realizing how close David and I are- he is one of my best friends in this world. I have been calling him "favorite cousin David Hakes" and cannot begin a conversation without those words. I even texted Katie and said "Hi favorite cousin David Hakes' girlfriend! How is your day going?" Yes, I am a goof. I accept this sad, but true fact. I've become so much closer to not only my cousins (David and Bethany in particular) but I have also become closer to my aunts. Growing up, even though it comes with so many trials and responsibilities, is a TON OF FUN. Especially when you have such fun, smart, wonderful role models like my aunts to look up to. I LOVE MY FAMILY!

I realize that I have been a horrible blogger. Which I don't completelty understand because I love to just sit down and write aimlessly. So- I'm going to try to do better! Talk to you soon
