Within the confines of this little cyber-world, you will encounter mind boggling facts (doubtful), side splitting humor (more doubtful), artifacts of great historical significance (we have a lot of old family photos to bore you with), and maybe you will even come across some genuine German/Canadian stuff

(Got your curiosity up, eh?!?)


Of the nine in this family, I am the Canadian. I am out numbered 9 to 1 by Americans. The odds are still in my favor. I am after all, "The Father." Join me on our wonderful journey.

The Weekend

Saturday we had a big performance an hour or so away. The whole family came. It was such fun.



"The Country Cousins!"





This was the first time Aunt Ashley had sang with us at a performance. She did great!!



Havin' Fun Callie in the spotlight!



"Have Faith, Hope and Charity!"



"You're the Only star, in my blue heaven..."
(Speaking of her baby brother of course) ;) Sarah and her fiddle


Concentration... why?




Cause' it's time for that Orange Blossom Special!!


This was was one of the last performances the Cousins will do together since the Millers are moving. The event leader asked Grandmama to share a little about the family. She was able to give glory to God by proclaiming our desire to show those around us what He can do when a family is committed to HIM and to each other. Then all the kids introduced themsleves. It was a precious time. The sound man was so touched that he had tears in his eyes. I guess it really is rare to see an extended family like ours. It is exciting to be able to be a testimony!



There was a little zoo at the park, and the little ones loved looking at the animals.

That was a very nice weekend. The kids did so well at Zolfo. We are all so sad that it was one of the last performances of the Country Cousins. Mama's testimony was a blessing to us all. Hopefully it will help lead the listeners to Christ.
