15) This morning I am grateful for the local extended family I have.
Yesterday was day two of the countywide high school swim meet and Grandpa Herb traveled an hour south (on a BYU game day!) to watch The Girl and our two cousins--Bryce and Garret--who swim for Provo. He was a good sport and watched intently--at least he seemed interested. And he didn't put his AM radio headphones on during out kids' heats. He could keep up with the Cougars in New Mexico, and our kids in the pool. Uncle V and Aunt L along with grown up cousin, Miss Larisa, also came over to see them swim.
I had three cousins I knew well as I grew up, but that was three out of about ten more. I hope my kids get a different experience as we try to do things together with Genius Golfer's family. They enjoy getting together and hanging out with their cousins. We get a lot of support in family events from everyone, so that helps that feelings of family develop too. For all that, I am grateful.
