Family Gatherings.

Family. We all have one. The crazy people that we sometimes are ashamed of. The ones that know every embarssing detail of our lives, but still love us anyways. They are the ones that come over ever holiday, demanding food. They are the ones that have seen you at your high points, and the ones that have seen you at your low points.
No matter what happens, you will always have your family, no matter how much they annoy you, no matter how much they get under your skin, they will always be there for you. They will always be there on your good days, and the bad. They have to, because family can't leave you hanging, whether it's a friend whose like family, or an actually family member, it's all the same.
Family is hard to shake.
The gatherings that we have with them are the canvas of making memories. When we are old and gray, we will look back and remember the time little cousin Timmy spilled orange juice over Aunt Vicky, or the time when we decided to wear cake as makeup.
Family is always there.
Family is what makes us, whether its the one that we are given or the one that we can create ourselves. It's something that we can not do without, and something that is completly necesary.
Life without family is no life at all.
