Cousins

Nice evening at home, entertaining cousin David and Oddveig over dinner. Still find it funny that they've joined us as Beijing residents... Who'd have thought?  
I have 14 cousins, ten on my dad's side, four on my mum's. We used to have quite big Elliott get-togethers every other year or so, but in the last decade, given our locale, we've not been to many. Any? So catching up is usually limited to a declining amount of weddings and (sadly) an increasing number of funerals. But it looks like we'll be able to attend the next one this summer. For some of my relatives, it will be the first time they've met our girls. Amazing. Has it been that long?
