The older we get, the more difficult it gets to get the whole fam together, yet no matter the year, some things never change about these visits.
Upon arrival at your grandparent's (or any relative's house) you're greeted with many many many hugs.
Rather quickly, everyone has their own idea about what should happen during the visit and things can easily get... tense.
The personal life questions start rolling in, and you still don't know how to answer because you still have no clue what you're doing with your life.
Afternoon naps happen...like every day... and it's pretty great.
You recognize a family trait that runs true in every member. For my personal family, it's an unwillingness to let anyone mess with us.
You eat. Everything. All the time. All the food. This morning my grandparents had prepared three types of biscuits and cinnamon rolls to accompany our eggs for breakfast. Eat all the things.
Familial bickering. Bound to happen, never fun to experience.
Someone brings up politics...why.
The sappy "I'm so glad we're family" moments. Usually occurring at night after consuming dessert.
