It is legal to marry your cousin and to have kids with them. I should know, I'm married to my cousin and we have 3 perfect kids. If they were deformed, it would have nothing to do with the fact that you were cousins most of the time.
Another answer:Lucky you. None of my chilren are perfect, and my spouse is from another culture altogether.Legally, different states (and countries) have different laws about whom you may or may not marry. Some restrict first-cousin marriages; some don't.
Washington state law RCW 26.04.020 Subsection (1)(b) prohibits marriage between first cousins. It was originally adopted in 1866 by the Washington Territory Legislation. It has remained unchanged ever since except for modern rewording.

State Law:
765.03(1)
(1) No marriage shall be contracted while either of the parties has a husband or wife living, nor between persons who are nearer of kin than 2nd cousins except that marriage may be contracted between first cousins where the female has attained the age of 55 years or where either party, at the time of application for a marriage license, submits an affidavit signed by a physician stating that either party is permanently sterile. Relationship under this section shall be computed by the rule of the civil law, whether the parties to the marriage are of the half or of the whole blood. A marriage may not be contracted if either party has such want of understanding as renders him or her incapable of assenting to marriage.
