Count Your Blessings....

Pictures of the Rupp girl cousins singing "Count Your Blessings". June 20, 2009. A repeat performance from Grandma and Grandpa Rupp's 50th wedding anniversary circa 1960. Several of us "Outlaws" have been warmly welcomed to this amazing group of girl cousins.

Cousin Brenda is keeping an eye on cousin Linda...who is counting her blessings that she made it through the weddings of both of her daughters last year. One in July and one in December.
Cousin Delight is counting her blessings that her granddaugher is in the Miss Ohio contest this very night. Cousin Donna is counting her blessings that she is now retired from Nursing and finding more time to help others and do the things for the Lord that she loves to do.

We finally dragged Carma into the front row. She is the tiny one and was hiding.....note this next picture....


I still can't see cousin Marleen, she is behind someone in every picture! It is such a blessing to see the cousins! They are all so wonderful! And if I remember correctly this is just a little over half of them.

Since several faces are familiar to me in your "crowd", I couldn't help but bop over here from Donna & Brenda's blog. I'm really glad I did! The recounting of individual blessings was great to read! You all are very blessed. The prayers of righteous people are powerful and effective - influencing generation after generation!

What a sweet post! You are such a dear favorite outlaw--adopted with all of the rights and privileges of full a fledged descendent! Thank you, Mark! Thanks Lynn for embracing us even though you are privy to our faults amd weaknesses. Blessings on you!
