The Riggs Have The "Right" Stuff

I have 9 nine first cousins. They are all wonderful and I love them all in their own special way! Most of them live in Tennesse, but I am blessed to have two of them living close to me in Ft. Worth. I have a special bond with them because I was able to be there on the days they were born and have enjoyed watching them grow up. Seems like yesterday I always referred to them as "My little cousins, Reece and Rachel." Well now Reece towers over me at 16 and Rachel is everybit the beautiful young woman! Where has time gone? I am soooo proud of the people they are becoming and have already proven to be. This shouldn't surprise me so much because my Aunt Mel and Uncle Gary are loving and devoted parents, not to mention a great Aunt and Uncle. Reece and Rachel are two of the most selfless and caring people I have ever met. I just love being around them and am sad that I don't get more opportunities to hang out with them.
Aside from their amazing character, they are both amazing Athletes.
Reece is a Junior and Rachel is a Freshman at Northwest High School in Justin, TX.
Reece plays football and Rachel runs track for the school. She also plays Select Soccer for the Solar Dogs! Reece plays both wide receiver and defensive end! You couldn't ask for a better player!
Rachel pretty much dominates in all her sports. She is a phenominal soccer player and has won both local and state honors in cross country.
Basically I look up to both of them tremendously:)
Here they are in Action...

The Rest of The Runners should be coming in about 10 minutes, atleast that's what they said when I passed them...

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"The" Rachel Riggs...

You are going down buddy...

Excuse me, I'm headed for the quarter back...

Yes ladies He's SINGLE, only incredible girls need apply:)


So next time you pick up a paper and you see a picture or an article about one of the Riggs' kids either helping their community or achieving a great sports feat, you can say you heard it here first. They're amazing and I love 'em
