For those who don't know the back story, Cousin Camp was officially begun in 2007, the year my parents became grandparents of 3 all in the same year! Myrick was born in March in New Hampshire, and Maddox and Nixon followed six months later in October in Florida. Since it seems unlikely that we'll ever live in the same state (although we are getting closer!) we needed to have a time during the year that could be dedicated to the new cousins, thus the birth of Cousin Camp. This is the 3rd year that we've gathered them together and now with the addition of Pender! It also seems like this is the first year that we can actually "do" stuff. Akie is the director of Cousin Camp and the creator of the menu and the schedule, and boy, has she packed it in this year! Day one was held around the house creating our tee-shirts and washing the car - a nice mellow start.
All done - time to play!
