Monday

My nephew Christopher and his lady friend, Kayla came up to the northeast from Ohio this week to visit and to go to a Red Sox game. It is always so nice to see any of the Ohio clan and it was especially nice to meet Kayla!

Mom and Dad, Chris and Kayla and nieces Amber and Emily came over Monday for lunch and a visit. Thankfully the weather was nice and the younger set was able to enjoy the pool.

I love it that all the cousins enjoy each other company so much. My guys have 13 cousins ranging in age from 21 down to 8.

Brian arrived home while our company was still here, so he was able to visit with everyone. He had been TDY in Greenland. It was very nice to have him home.

Cousins are a blessing!

I had 40 or so but all were scattered far across the world!

What fun that your kids can play with their cousins. My brother isn't married and we aren't close to dh's sister so our kids don't have any cousins that they socialize with. We ARE thankful for a distant cousin that our ds plays with whom you've seen on my blog throughout the summer. Anyway.. looks like FUN!

I am not usually an envious person, but I envy your kids their cousins. My kids have NO first cousins, and it makes me sad for them. We never saw our cousins often while growing up, but when we did, it was like we'd known each other for ever. We even had a cousins reunion the last two summers at my mom's house.
