Clothes and Coupons (The Cannon Fam Dwayne, Helen, Miranda, Cassie and Kymia)

The Coupon Extraordinaires


Here are the coupon masters Dwayne and Helen. Dwayne's dad is my grandmothers brother so Dwayne is my dad's cousin. I think that makes him my second cousin? (Im not sure the genealogy term for how we are related.) Dwayne and Helen have three daughters Miranda 15, Cassie 12, and Kymia 2. Dwayne and Helen and I have the best set up because they have a 2 year old daughter and since I have a 3 year old and a 1 year old (and since both of them and myself have shopping problems) we can all trade toys and clothes!

On this particular day Dwayne was able to show off all of his coupon freebies and give me some tips of how to build some of my own stock piles. We met at their house and I took some of the stuff Aspen had grown out of and Helen gave me all of Kymia's stuff for Hazel to grow into. Within a few weeks I had found even more stuff for Princess Kymia so they came to our house to play and I got a few shots of the girls playing together.




Aspen adores Kymia. She will ask all the time to play with her. She also knows that all her clothes go to her after she grows out of them so if she drops something on a shirt she will say, "Mom, you need to wash that out before we give it to Kymia." or she will say, "This is too tight. Lets give it to Kymia." Its really funny hearing this come from a 3 year old. Kymia has her own area in the spare room and when something doesnt fit anymore Aspen knows where to put it. These girls have brought Helen and myself together as friends and  I hope that these girls can grow up and become good friends just as Helen and myself have.
