I recently saw a quote about cousins that went something like this, "A Cousin is a Ready-Made Friend for Life". Oh boy is that true!!!
Mary Beth, Melissa and Claudine - circa 1984 |
When I was debating about attending the Heidi Hope Photography Workshop, my cousin, Claudine (she also manages a few facets of my photography business), said, "Drive through NJ, drop off your children and go to the workshop!!!" How could I pass up an offer like that, right?!?
Melissa, Claudine and Mary Beth - 2014 |
So, in the middle of June, we arrived at her house and to my surprise, she had invited two of her siblings, who also live in NJ, to visit with us, too.
So, there I was in NJ with 3 of my cousins, swimming, BBQing lots of goodies and feeling like I was a kid again (minus all the Barbie-playing and dress-up). My cousins and I spent summers and winter vacations traveling to each other's homes to spend time together.
Oh the stories we could tell, but... isn't that the beauty of cousins, right?!? You each keep a part of the other's childhood so close to your heart - memories only you can share.
So, this summer was a fabulous one for me for sure! And you want to know the best part, watching our children play together, watching them develop relationships and memories that will last their whole lives, too!
