Chapter 1205 Family Vacation:>1

My Mom and my Aunt Tara are fraternal twins. They were best friends as kids and even went to college together. But after they met their respective husbands, they went to completely different parts of the country. Aunt Tara and Uncle Micah moved to Pennsylvania while my Mom and Dad bought a house in the suburbs of Chicago.
Soon, both sisters had babies and -- surprise surprise -- they both gave birth to twins. First, Aunt Tara had my cousins, Logan and Marissa. Two years later, my Mom gave birth to my brother, Liam, and me, Melanie.
My Mom and her twin sister still keep in touch. These days it's harder not to stay in contact with someone. However, a FaceTime isn't the same as a face-to-face. And so, once a year, both families get together for a week's vacation in July. As a joke, I named these annual gatherings TwinCon, and it's had that designation ever since.
