I think my kids would agree that the very best part of a weekend with the family is the endless cousin time. Although the families are divided among three cabins, and there tends to be a lot of down time, our kids maximize playing with cousins.

Although not all the cousins were able to be together for the weekend, we connected with the ones that were there and loved every minute. There were a few of my kids I had to seek out and make sure they were still around the cabin because I rarely saw them.

And while the cousins connected – Steve and his siblings did the same thing. Bonding over late night chips, salsa and guac is always a good idea. Adult dinners are also very enjoyable. Watching them battle it out on the tennis and pickle ball courts is entertaining. They’ve got some competitive bones. The only thing that would have made it sweeter was having three more siblings there!
