What We're Planning for the First Cousin Get Together



This is totally what we're going to do once all four of the Baby Tsunami cousins get born. From BBC News, Spanish village holds baby jump.

Grown men have been leaping over rows of babies in the north Spanish village of Castrillo de Murcia in an annual rite meant to ward off the Devil. Jumpers dressed as the Colacho, a character representing the Devil, bounded over clusters of bemused infants laid out on mattresses. Nobody appeared to get hurt in this year's festive event.

Put your faith in the Lord that you won't get bitten by a snake or that your baby won't get crushed??? I dunno.
