Family Traditions – 27
from I Shouldn't Have Had Kids Hosted by Ellen and Bonnie
Goodnight Moon. Secret handshakes. Saturday morning waffles. Every family has traditions that help define its culture. Ours has been defined, in part, by an annual, multi-family camp-out in the San Juan Islands. TBH, the kayaking, crabbing, campfires, sing-a-longs and potlucks on an island floating in the Northwest waters of the Pacific Ocean is ridiculously idyllic—as long as the children aren't falling into the fire while roasting marshmallows, the driftwood forts aren't crashing in on the kids who built them, and the parents don't have one too many glasses of scotch. We promise you'll laugh when you come along for the (ferry) ride with us to Spencer Spit—and be reminded that what's most important in our lives is connecting with the ones we love. If ever there was a time to lean into that idea, it's right now. Links YouTube Video from "I Married an Ax Murderer": Mike Meyers' poem "Woman" SNL YouTube Video: More Cow Bell!
