Weekend at G-ma's part 2

I love my cousins. On my dad's side, I have 3 girl cousins and a boy cousins, and on my mom's side it's the same. I am very close to them. When some people talk about their cousins, it sounds as if they don't even know them and I get very sad for them. It makes me really really happy that I have so many great cousins. And they are all great. Each cousin is doing awesome things with their lives. The girls also love having cousins. They love having that family connection with people, so pretty much anyone that we love a whole lot...the girls will call them their cousin. You know, those people that you just have a special-heart connection with? As Anne from Anne of Green Gables would say....kindred spirits. Anyway, those people are our cousins in the girls' eyes. The girls love playing with their real cousins too. We get to see Bethany's son quite a bit, but we don't get to Amarillo real often to see the other cousins. We do, however, get to see some of my cousins' children quite a bit. My cousin Sarah lives in Colorado, so we don't get to see her and her kiddos very often, and we miss them every time we get together. Anyway....enough of my family history! On to the pictures and the fun weekend!

I have tons of pictures and I have other pictures that show the closeness of the girls to their cousins, but I love these.
T and S are only a few weeks apart in age, and they LOVE to play together. The thing is, they are so much alike it is pretty funny. They play so well together....and they then they like their own space too! Their friendship reminds me so much of me and Macy, T's mom.

Macy and I have SO many hugging pictures like this. We were just two peas in a pod! I LOVE it that tradition carries on! When Macy and her crew were leaving, S climbed into their vehicle and hid so she could go with them....JUST like we used to do when we were little!

Even though the rest of the girls and the rest of the cousins aren't in these pictures, I think they tell the story of the love of cousins, and you KNOW that I LOVE that!!!!!

More weekend at G-ma pictures to come!
