This weekend was our Second Annual Cousin's Weekend with Josh's Dad's side of the family. The forecast called for rain all weekend, and boy did it deliver! However, we had been complaining about the heat, so I suppose it was due? Last year it was rainy too. Fortunately, there is what they call a super structure on the farm where they can keep equipment and things out of the rain, and those of us that were tenting were able to pitch under there. So at least we could sleep where it was dry.
Most of us didn't show up until Saturday (two nights in the rain might have been too much), but one of Josh's cousins pointed out, "There aren't many people I would come to hang out with in the rain." Have I mentioned how much love this family? Because I love this family, they are such a bunch of gentlemen in a non-condescending way. I was given a jagerbomb while drinks were being handed out (which contained RedBull), and subsequently stayed up until 3am around the fire with a select few. But, as I mentioned before, I love this family, and even though we are two for two on rainy weekends, it is so worth it.
The girls always have fun getting to play with their cousin Ellery, and she has cousins from her other side who join us, as they just live down the road. They had fun playing in the top of the garage this year in and among the berry boxes.
On the way home we have made a tradition of stopping at The Big Apple for some pie in the morning. Summer is officially over for us now. Bring on fall!
