I love: the Walsh cousins.

Ryan wrote this for Money and Grampa Walsh. I don't have pictures of some of the cousins, but here are some I could scratch up! These are the kids from my Mum's side of the family. 

Look at PJ and those little blue eyes,

It’s hard to believe all those years have gone by.

He’s our little Mozart, but he plays the guitar,

But now he’s in Ottawa studying afar.

He still comes to visit us from time to time,

When he brings his guitar it’s simply sublime!

Here is Shannon, who always makes us smile,

To make someone laugh she’d go half a mile.

She loves sports, school and all things living,

And her personality? Talk about forgiving!

She rarely frowns even when life is bittersweet,

If there’s a sad person any where, it’s Shannon they should meet! 

Oh there goes Jayme in a flash,

Make fun of basketball and you two will clash.

She does every sport whether it’s skiing or dance,

Put her on your team and the other has no chance.

When you watch her play, she really is cool,

And to top it all off she does really well in school! 

Right next to her is Ryan, with a smile ear to ear,

Need something done? Ask without fear.

He’d rather you’re happy when he’s around

He also has hair that is curly and brown.

Ryan lives next-door so you see him a lot,

In fact here he comes now I wonder what he brought? 

Look here’s Robin the oldest grand kid,

She’s been everywhere she even spent a year in Madrid.

Robin doesn’t even know the meaning of fear,

She never backs out; she’ll be first to volunteer.

Right now she’s in L.A. finishing school,

We all love Robin she’s our precious little jewel. 

Yay! It’s Cassie, our little dancing star,

Right now she’s in Michigan which isn’t that far.

We all love to see her when we get the chance,

We get flash backs to when she was little and learning to dance.

It’s great to know Cassie; she’ll always be nice,

She never is mad; she’ll make you laugh twice. 

In this photo it’s Jack she is smiling like always,

She’s been all over the place, but it’s California nowadays.

She grew up so fast! It really is funny,

But she still makes sure that she calls Walshie and Money.

If she goes anywhere, I guarantee she’ll have a blast,

Our love for Jackie is gonna last and last. 

Whoosh! There goes Ben at fifty miles an hour,

He just loves life; his mood is never sour.

He can always find something fun for you to do,

Whether it’s building a tower or paddling a canoe.

He lives out in Calgary but in the summer he comes here,

And when he does we all laugh so hard we are in tears. 

Look it’s Emma; she’s reading a book,

Her personality is as warming as a Chinook.

She really is fun to be around,

Need a friend she’ll pick you up off the ground.

We love to see Emma each summer season,

She’s always happy just for no reason! 

Hey! It’s Troy, he really is funny,

He is the newest grand child of Walshie and Money.

He’s tons of fun and smiles all day long,

They say he looks like Brad Pitt, which isn’t that wrong.

He really knows his stuff when it comes to cars,

He really is a great friend of ours. 

Here is Theresa; very loving and kind,

She’s nice to everyone, she won’t leave you behind.

Right now she’s in England, which is far away,

But in our hearts she will always stay.

She might be new to the family but it’s like she’s been here forever,

It’s a pleasure to know her she really is clever.
