Cousins

Here are most of the cousins... from left to right: Jemma (horse-mad and currently looking to replace her beloved horse Guy that she had to put down just before Christmas), Rebekah with her little sister Hannah on her lap, Gabi (can't believe she stopped hurtling around long enough for a photo to be taken!), Julia, Sarah, and Shae (recently moved from USA to SA to live with the grandparents so she can study drama - or was it dance?). Missing are: Bethany (who claims that Nellie is her favourite cousin!), Dana and Adam, Annaka (who's expecting a little brother in a few months - thank God for another boy in the family!!), and Denver (who's living in the UK with his dad).
Despite my worst fears, Madam was as happy as a pig in mud when she met her cousins, aunts and uncles (granted, not for the first time, but she was only a babe in arms the first time, so there's no way she would remember any of them!). I guess the family resemblance helps, and I guess she really loves being the centre of attention. Wonder how she will cope when the new little one comes along in a few short weeks???
