Oh the holidays.
A great time for vacations, family, memory making and reminiscing.
Many families have traditions.
I remember holidays at my grandparents house. Aunts, uncles, cousins, food and grandma’s divinity fudge.
I’m not a sweets person, but that fudge was to die for. I would make myself sick eating my share, plus a few other’s.
All of the cousins running in and out of the house, playing tag, hide and seek, enjoying life. Not a care or worry in the world.
The grow ups sitting outside smoking their cigarettes, drinking their tea, or whatever they slipped in their glass, watching us burn off all that energy and fudge before returning home.
My cousins were my first best friends.
After grandma passed away, it all changed. Crazy how one person can be the glue for an entire family.
I miss those days.
To all my cousins, aunts, uncles, in-laws and outlaws…
I love and miss you!
