Home Away From Home


For Thanksgiving this year, our home became a home away from home. My parents wanted a quiet Thanksgiving (my mom recently had surgery), so my brother came to visit. He brought with him a freshman from Northern Virginia (and Ireland) whose family was going to Massachusetts to celebrate the holiday. The kid was going to spend the holiday alone at Purdue until my brother convinced him he'd have fun at our house. Miles invited a fellow graduate student who didn't feel up to driving 8 hours for one meal since UT-Knoxville doesn't get the Wednesday before Thanksgiving off.

At first, I didn't know what to expect since Miles and I are so weird, but we had a wonderful Thanksgiving. It was fun being the home away from home for so many friends!
