It's a family thing...

So it seems like you can count on the following things in any country:

1. Someone is always making the little kids scream.
2. All the adults are yelling shut up, but no one listens.
3. There is always a "kids" table and an "adults" table. (The 17-21 year olds will go back and forth.)
4. An elderly person always makes a dish no one really wants to eat. Except the adults...kind of. :P
5. Before a family get-together, mom will run around yelling at everyone to clean. Breakdown.
6. The children will whine while doing a half-a**ed job.
7. Everything turns out fine anyway. No one notices the dirty parts.
8. You always eat too much!
9. That pile of dishes....you know the one.
10. Everyone falls into food coma.

I had such a long list. Haha. But getting together with families is a lot of fun here. Mostly because the adults always drink and they are really funny. We play card games until we have played all of them at least 5 times. :) I miss everyone, but I am really enjoying my time here.
