During the regatta, the old sailors joked that the ship's cousins were faster than any yacht in the harbor.

Although they were technically sixth cousins, they became close friends in college.

At the reunion, I met my fourth cousins for the first time and was surprised by how many family stories they knew.

Although we grew up in different cities, my half-cousins and I have remained close through family gatherings.

My first cousins and I meet every summer at our grandparents' lake house.

My cousins-in-law surprised us with a homemade cake at the family reunion.

My paternal cousins came to visit during the summer and we explored the countryside together.

Every summer, my maternal cousins and I explore the old trails behind our grandparents' farmhouse.

Although they had never met, the two third cousins decided to organize a family reunion.

My step-cousins and I started a small weekend gardening club to share heirloom seeds and tips.
