My Family and Tennessee
My Family and Tennessee
My family is very different from others. We love to hang out with each other every two years. There was fun and hilarious times, but the best the time was last year. My mom and dad wanted a nice relaxing vacation with our uncles, aunts, and cousins at Tennessee because it has been almost two years and a lot can change over two years. Therefore, we tell them that we’re going to see them for a few days and they were excited. On July, we left our home and we hit the road.
The trip was long and boring; also, it took us about 6 hours and extra 3 hours because we were heading south instead of east. Finally, we made it to Tennessee. The thing was that we were lost and had no clue of where we were. Therefore, we called my uncle and he came and showed us where to go. When we saw my uncle’s house and it was small but never “judge a book from its cover,” the house was bigger inside than outside. We met the whole family from Tennessee and it was fun meeting them.
We talked about what we did over the years and we also played some games. It was time to go to sleep and we needed to sleep in one of my cousins’ bedroom. The next day we were planning a nice picnic at the park. We packed up sandwiches, soda, some fruit, and my favorite tacos. We went to a park that had buffalos, ducks and sheep. We set up the picnic under a sort of a house. While the grownups were setting up, we played on playground.
When we were at the playground I heard thunder, but I thought it was a firework. It was getting cloudy, but it was always cloudy when we came to Tennessee. Instead of going to the playground, I follow the path in the forest with one of cousin; his name is Jorge. We found a duck, a beehive and a snake. We ran all the way to the picnic table. When we made it from the forest, I somewhat hungry so we started eating so I straight headed for the tacos and then the sandwiches, soda to drink. When I was eating my fruit, I heard thunder and the sky was getting dark.

    One warm summer day my family was frantically rushing to gather all our belongings for a week long adventure out west. We were trying our best to squeeze every item in the car; finally we were ready to depart from home. I was just fourteen years of age at the time and had never been more than a few states away. The ride there was beyond exciting, but extra long. I believe most of that was due to the anticipation of when we would finally reach the great state of Colorado.…

    As I grew older I became more familiar with thunderstorms, they are really common in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. After that night I wait for another storm to came, and when it finally happened I couldn’t stop watching. I sat in the living room, right by my mom’s side, watching the water pour down through the window. She happily watched the rain and thought me to wait for the white light that illuminated the entire sky. Once we saw the light, we counted the second for the million soldiers to appear, marching and keeping the pace as they passed above us in the dark night sky. As the soldiers approached to my house, the windows started vibrating, announcing their arrival and also their departure. I learned to keep calm and find these sounds friendly for a deep sleep. When I woke up I will see a clear blue light sky and a bright yellow sun, almost as if the night before had never occurred. I couldn’t stop asking myself how did that powerful storm was created.…

    One very long month later, everyone's bags were packed and we was off to Tennessee! After five lengthy hours and passing through a time zone, I spotted the breathtaking view of Nashville. As we entered our hotels parking lot, I got out of the car and stared in awe of all the bright colorful lights and building against the dark night sky. It was stunning. My family and I walked into the hotel to be greeted by a welcoming smile from the lady behind the desk. We got our room keys and went to out room. It was decorated with pictures of guitars and a warm welcoming goldish yellow wallpaper. Although it was already nine o'clock, our night had just began.…

    Out of pure shock I broke into a sprint into the direction of my house, branches and twigs were swiping against my face, lightly cutting it. Then out of nowhere I heard an eruption of thunder echoing all through the woods, then the rain started coming down hard, harder, it was like it was on the verge of being ice, I continued to sprint, the path began to over flow with water, it was like I was running through a river bed, as I was sprinting throwing my head over…

    The best part of the reunion is the cooking. My mom always makes the desserts. There is nothing like an old fashion pound cake, red velvet cake, butternut, and chocolate cake. She has some of the best recipes in town. My great Aunt Ment, who is one of the eldest members of our family, comes all the way from Miami, FL. She makes the best chicken dressing, which my family says cannot be duplicated. While we are doing all the cooking and baking, my uncle Joe is always sneaking snapshots and videotaping us when we least expect it.…

    I was born in a family where my grandparents and parents are all the knowledgeable persons because all of them had the chances to go to colleges. Therefore, when I was a child, they always told me that the knowledge will change people’s lives to a better level. Since the education in China is not supported by the government, so people have to pay children’s education by themselves. Today, as I grew up and I am going to graduate with my degree, I thank my family for their love and support over the years.…
