This past weekend was amazing, not only because it was the long Thanksgiving holiday weekend but I also got to spend time with family. A few years ago my mother and brother moved just outside of Van Buren, Arkansas and I was able to go visit them for the holiday.

Not only did I get to visit with my mom and brother but also reconnected with cousins, saw aunts and uncles, and also met family I had that I had never met before. The holiday was filled with lots of laughs and delicious food.

Having never been to Arkansas before I wasn't sure what to expect but it was similar to Montana with a very laid back and slow pace to life. Also very beautiful and lots of stuff to do.

My favorite part of the trip was being able to put my phone down and disconnect from work for a few days. Being able to just spend time talking in person and of course anytime you get to see your mom is always special. It was exactly what I needed from the extended holiday weekend.
