3 years ago, Columbus Day turned into a 85-degree beach day on October 10. Watching my kids and their cousins frolic in the surf suddenly reminded me that they were only getting bigger & bigger, busier & busier and that I had better do something about it!!

That is when I deemed Columbus Day – ‘Cousins Day’. I will make it a priority to gather the brood and have some spectacular adventure together every year. This year marked The 3rd Annual Costello Clan Cousins Day.

Visit our 1st Annual Day here. Visit our 2nd Annual Day here.

Here’s what a very good Cousin’s Day looks like.

I love watching them together and watching who pairs up for a conversation and to play.

Good kids, good fun.

A happy family is but an earlier heaven.
