Cousins' Club

In our family, bonds between cousins are like bonds between siblings. Since Holten and Kayla are in town from North Carolina, we've been spending a lot of time hanging out with cousins.

Here are a few shots of the family fun:

Holten, Luke & Grayson (aka the Three Amigos)

Kayla (the lone girl and our little fish) swam for nearly 12 hours straight on Saturday. She's so good with the boys and likes to take care of them and gives plenty of hugs.

Luke taking a break to catch some rays

Luke & Grayson getting a talkin' to about running in the restaurant (and Gray saying "cheeeese" instead of listening)

Grayson showing Holten how all his fun toys work

My favorite quote from the weekend came from Suzanne (my cousin) telling her three-year-old son Luke (who was whining about Grayson being his constant shadow)..."Grayson is your cousin. That means you're best friends. Get over it. Embrace it. And move on." So Luke did embrace it and by Sunday he was actually asking where Gray was when there came a rare moment he wasn't right by his side.
