Cousins

I asked my kids "If you could play with anyone, in the whole world, all the time, Who would  you pick?"
(I probably could have typed this without asking them, and written the exact same thing down. 
But I wanted it to be legit.)
And their answers are as followed:

Jantsen: (pause for deep thought)
"In the whole world?"  
Yep. Anyone in the whole world.
"Does it have to be someone in this house?"
It can be anyone you pick.
"Anyone?"
Yes...it is a simple questions, simple answer. Who would you want to play with forever?
"Oh then it would be...PARKER!!" (and he yelled it at the top of his lungs and did a little joyful jump. Funny boy!)

Kambryn: (very quick and "as-a-matter-of-factly")
"Eme. She's my first favorite. And Lydia and Abby because they will play dolls with me, and Sydni (omaha friend). But I only like the girls (said with a little Sass in her voice).

Talan:
He didn't quite understand the question. Because when I would ask him who his buddy was, he would point to himself and say "Talan".
But to tell you the truth, any one of his cousins, he would be happy to play with. He did get really excited the other day when I told him that Kambryn's friend Emma was coming over, only to be totally disappointed when it wasn't his cousin Eme I was talking about. He kept yelling out "Eme's house. Eme's house."

So needless to say, my kids love their cousins, well pretty much all their family. Uncles, aunts, grandparents, cousins, if they are related to us, They are my kids' best friends.

Here are some fun things we did over the holidays with "Our Best Friends".
