This will be the 27th year (not counting 2020 for COVID) that about 40+ family members meet at my sister’s home/estate outside of Baltimore for a week-long Thanksgiving family reunion.
The above picture is from 2018. My mother is seated in the middle with almost all her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
She died less than two weeks later at age 94. My Dad died in 2009, about a month before his 89th birthday.
This year, all of the adult cousins are in charge of everything for the entire week (including cooking and serving all the meals), and we OGs will just sit back and enjoy!
Here on “We Are Speaking,” we’re also taking the week off.
We’ll be back on our regular publishing schedule next week.
Meanwhile, feel free to view the archive of all of our posts.
I will be posting some pics about #ThanksgivingWithBlackFamilies.
Have a great holiday!
