This weekend my family all came into town to celebrate my grandfather’s 80th birthday. Thing is, he had no idea that he was getting a party on quite that scale when he agreed to come. I’m assuming he only thought it’d be a small gathering of family, completely unaware that his extended family and friends would be flying in from all over the country to be there for him on this big milestone. But I probably enjoyed it almost as much as he did. For me it wasn’t just a celebration of his birthday, it was a family reunion where I got to see cousins I haven’t seen in years. It was awkward at first, but it all mellowed out and turned into a great weekend.
