When I heard that there was going to be a mother-daughter camp happening at Kidder Creek and that my services as a counselor were not going to be needed there I asked for the whole week off, and I got it! It was actually really cool how God ended up working it out. The only week out of the summer that I was not needed at camp a whole bunch of both my mom and dad's family was coming to visit and it was awesome! I got to spend a lot of time with my aunts, uncles, grandparents and my six cousins. With my siblings and I it was 12 cousins combined all doing stuff together and having sleep overs. Hence the name of this post "Cousins Camp." And We had a blast together! We celebrated Fathers day, two birthdays, went swimming and fishing, watched movies, played games, had a campfire in the back yard, and I taught them to line dance and the songs that I had learned while at camp.
Here are pictures to show you. :)
