Crazy cousins causing commotion! 3 weeks together brought a whirlwind of fun times and craziness! The kids certainly get along like siblings. They play, fight, and entertain each other as if they spent every day together. It's so wonderful to hear their interaction, to watch them play, and mostly to be able to relax and just let them be. They are all at the age now that Monika and I can enjoy each others' company while the kids keep each other entertained.
This was certainly the coolest (weather wise) summer for them and the rainiest. This year we didn't plan a ton of excursions, but just relaxed around home base. We can't even begin to put into words how much we miss each other when they are gone (here's another plea to get them to move north!). These are certainly precious memories filled with joy!
