Forced Family Time
I tend to get a little grumpy when too much time goes by without having a Hatcher family adventure. Considering much of the summer of 2020 was spent packing, moving, cleaning, painting, acclimating to a new job, and driving between Knoxville and Nashville - I often felt this panicked grumpy feeling that too much time was slipping by with no family memories. So I forced everyone out to Ft. Loudoun Lake for the day to get in some much needed time away, kayaking and paddle boarding. Everything we did this summer had this overarching feeling that "this will likely be the last time we get to do this activity... here.. in Knoxville." Nonetheless, we made a great day out of it. Just me and my boys. Enjoying some forced family time. 😏
