For about a week now it has been non-stop cousin heaven! Rikki, Shannon, Britni and Noah are visiting from Anchorage, Raini is visiting from Arizona and Camryn just came home from Anchorage too.
The kids have been playing so well together, and they just can't seem to get enough (rain or shine). They have been jumping on the trampoline, swinging, playing with "babies", jumping rope, riding on the four-wheeler, Hide and Go Seek, and also Kick the Can. When it got closer for Rikki and Shannon to leave they even created a lemonade stand to raise money to extend their visit in Dillingham (they made about $20!) !!!
Kiley is loving every minute of it, even though she is one of the youngest ones, and she misses her best friend and partner in crime, the older ones have been pretty good about including her in their games. She has to take a time out every once and a while and just hang out with her buddy Graelin.

Hello,
I named my son Graelin because I loved the name, but also because we understood it to be Gaelic. I see you have a family member by that name. Do you know any history of the name or it's meaning? Any info would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
~Robin
GRAYLIN is a combination of two names –
GRAY, from the Old English graeg, meaning TO SHINE;
or from the Gallo-Roman personal name Gratus, meaning WELCOME, PLEASING;
or the name of the color GRAY, usually a mixture of black and white; and LINN, from the Welsh, meaning WATERFALL, LAKE
Thanks for the infomation! The only place I found the name "Grae" was on a list of Australian Boys Names, with no meaning provided. Can you tell me what resource you used to find the meaning?
