CPQ #22

If you could bring back any tradition that seems to have faded into the past, what tradition would you bring back?

This will be about a family tradition rather than a well-known tradition.  We always had a lot of family around while growing up in Cedar City.  Grandma and Grandpa Shirley lived in Cedar and most of my aunts, uncles and their kids lived in Cedar, too.  Every Sunday night, we'd have game night and real popcorn (not the microwave kind, the kind you cook in vegetable oil).  All the adults would play games on the front porch while all the cousins would run around having fun.  I miss those days.  As time went on, more and more aunts and uncles moved away.  Sunday night gatherings would still happen but it just wasn't as big a thing as it once was.  I hope that someday ALL my family can live closer together so we can go back to having Sunday game nights!
