Cousin Craft Day!

My sister and I grew up in a small town, with a very big family. Family get-togethers - and we had a lot of them – were filled with dozens of kids running around, aunts and uncles everywhere, tons of food, and loads of fun. Everyone always had the best time. It was fun growing up in such a large family – you always had someone to play with and there was always a birthday or milestone to celebrate. Because it was a small town, our cousins all attended the same schools, and were often in the same classes. Our grandmother owned the local newspaper, so all of the kids spent time working and playing in the newspaper office after school and during the summer.
