That's My Cousin!!!


This post might be super cheesy but I am so proud of Ali She actually did it! I am so excited for her! I am so so so proud that my cousin (Bette-Sue -the mom in the pic- is my dad's sister) made it to the finals and beat out all those super obese guys to be the first female biggest loser! She looked gorgeous. She looked like the Ali I remember seeing when we would visit growing up. Ali totally showed off how competitive Driggs girls can be -for better or worse. She was always athletic growing up and I think that gave her an advantage. YAY! I am so excited!! Way to go Ali! I am so proud of you along side the rest of the fam, you really are amazing!

Tam! I finally got the boys in bed and have a chance to type you a message. HAPPY BIRTHDAY a few hours early!!! Tyson remembers the day you were born. His teacher called him out of class and told him that he had a new little sister. I love hearing that story. He wrote a sweet little journal entry that day, too. Don't let him deny it-I've seen it. So sweet. He loves you...I do, too! Hope your birthday is great. I'll call at the crack of dawn.

P.S. Don't you KNOW I was going crazy Tuesday night?? I have told everybody I know that Ali is Tyson's cousin. You're right-the Driggs comptetitive gene came out. She looks unbelievable...just like all her girl cousins.

We have had such a blast watching Ali on Biggest Loser. All of my siblings (who know she's Cory's cousin) said they would have wanted her to win anyway...even if they didn't know she was a Driggs. She just looks beautiful, and her countenance is so happy.

Tamra! It's Rachel Decker (now Hagen)from Coppell. I was just at Libby's B-Day dinner and she mentioned you. I kept asking all these questions wondering what you were up to and she said to just go to your blog, which is linked to my cousin Summer's blog. Anyway, it was fun reading up on you and your cute family. Dyaln is adorable and your husband seems like a great guy. I'm glad to hear everything is going well for you guys. We'll have to keep in touch through our blogs. Ours is at rachelhagen.com
