Chuck and I made the trek up I-55 to spend Thanksgiving with my family. Everyone came together to spend some time with our grandmother and each other. Although I live in New Orleans and my aunt & uncle as well as my 2 cousins and their families live about 45 minutes away, we don’t see each other as often as we’d like. Add in the rest of my family that lives within 10-20 minutes of each other in North Mississippi and Memphis, it’s rare for all of us to be in the same place at the same time.
It was a great day and we had a good time. My aunt rented a bounce house for the kids and they had a blast while the rest of us ate, watched football and caught up on life. Sometimes, a little family time is just enough to fill the soul. And it was definitely worth the nearly 6 hour drive each way.
