I am counting down the days and I can't wait! Our family has a pig roast every October at my sister's in Missouri. It started 20 years ago, took a break for several years, and started back up about 9 or 10. We all look forward to it so much. A weekend out in the country with the only thing to focus on is family, fun, and of course tons of food. Usually too much food.
This has become a respite for many of us. It's a time we reconnect. With all of my siblings now having grandkids, the holidays have become harder to gather at Mom's. There are 42 of us now. It seems that no matter how much time spans between the cousins seeing each other, they have a connection. I hope that never changes. As time passes, and Mom (we all) get older, I don't want to lose those connections.
