The University of Dayton's annual Family Weekend has finally come and gone. Whether you're from a decently far away place or not, we can all agree that family is what makes the world go round and any chance to see them becomes top priority. And what better place to see them than the absolute best place on this planet? Alas, the weekend that most of us have been looking forward to has now come to an end and we are feeling many things. Here are just a few of the things you may have experienced and/or are now experiencing:

1. Your fridge is now well stocked.

Thanks Mom and Dad for running us to Walmart (or the sketchy Kroger if you so prefer) so that we are no longer surviving off of saltines and water! *Cue the Hallelujah chorus*

2. You are all caught up on the drama and info from home.

*gets to see all the cute pictures of your dog doing that super cute thing where they exist*

3. Your mom took AT LEAST 20 different pictures of you all over campus.

"Mom... is it really necessary that we have a picture of all of us in my bathroom?"

4. You showed some serious Dayton pride.

Because what better time to rock the UD colors and such than when you've got the whole squad to back you up? Even if you didn't attend one or more of the various sporting events on campus there is never a bad time to be a Dayton Flyer.

5. You finally got to introduce your friends to your parents.

Now they can't innocently ask which friend you're talking about and from which class and from what state. Just prepare yourself for constant questions about them at Thanksgiving dinner.

6. You got to dine on several actual meals.

Dear Lord in heaven, thank you for not having to eat ramen and sandwiches for a weekend!

7. You felt a little sad when they drove off.

The college life is fun but this means no more hugs from Mom and dad jokes from Dad for a little bit. Try not to cry too much.

8. You're also a little glad to see them go

The college life is still a great time and you've made a family at school that makes being away from your family at home a little easier. And now you don't have to keep your place super clean because no more guests for a while!

BONUS: DAY LIGHT SAVINGS TIME ADDED AN HOUR SUNDAY NIGHT SO THANKS FOR THAT TOO.

9. The count down till the next break begins

Even though the weekend has come and gone, there's no reason to be sad! Thanksgiving is right around the corner my friends. We can make it!

Thanks for another memorable UD Family Weekend and for spending time with us college kids! UD is a pretty special place and our families are pretty special too!
