Cousins


Our main purpose in these long summer holidays is to bring our kids to their cousins. Somehow, through the providence of heaven, each of our kids has a cousin within 6 months of their age. Usually their cousin isn't of their same gender, but that hasn't mattered much. Mostly they are just a big bunch of crazy friends, who love each other, imagine together, and share a bond of family friendship that is unique and special to their parents.

Hopefully I can bring you a photo or two of our "cousin camp" an annual event that began 6 summers ago, when we also lived in Texas. Locations and activities have varied through the years, but the anticipation for each upcoming camp builds and grows year by year. This annual gathering of friends who share blood will be happening for many years to come.
