As many people know, I come from a small town with a large family. What you might not know is how lucky I am that so many of them live very close to each other. My mom's dad, my dad's mom, and his sister all live in three houses right in a row. {My parents were next door neighbors when they started dating}.
Nowadays, my brother Ron and his wife Alison have a house on the same block, and my aunt's oldest boy and his family live next door to them. {The same aunt who lives in between my grandparents}. Can it get even better than that?
Why yes...yes, it can. My oldest brother and his wife have a vacation house on the same block that they lovingly open up to us whenever we want to stay there. It's a good life, and it just got better.
