Jed and a college chum - that's one handsome guy right there.
















Megan in the kitchen, doing one of the things she does best - a photo shoot. She cannot get enough of the camera, and vice versa...















The age old fight for access to a bathroom - make your non-tax-deductable donations to the orphanage to help expand our facilites...

















Once again, Jordan won - who could resist that little face?
















It won't be long and they'll be visiting us in the old folks home, we'll be soooo happy to see them.



















David and Carol - a few days after their 1st anniversary.

Who we are


This is who we are during the summer - cousins that call the Jackson Cousin Orphanage home during the school year are not pictured, but you will see plenty of them in upcoming blogs as I lament them not being with us and sharing our adventures.

Back Row - Carol and David, Corey, Jed
Front Row - Jan and GJ

Dave and Carol's new puppy and their idea of a grandchild - cruel joke indeed.

Cousin at the Orph - Megan



Megan Nichole Newmyer
