Somewhere between best friends and siblings...

...you find cousins.

When you are a kid, there's something about cousins that's different than any of the other people that you spend time with. They are some of the best friends you will ever have growing up. They are as close to you as a brother or a sister but as kindred as the best of buddies. There's just something special about cousins and I'm so glad our kids got to experience that this summer.
