My aunt’s house

My aunt owns a house, which is not particularly old, neither has it been in my family for lots of generations, but even though, this house is a treasure for me, due to the range of good memories that it brings.

When my grandmother died, several years ago, she bequeathed the house to all her 8 children, and the amazing thing is that it was a consensus between the brothers and sisters that the house would stay in the possession of the person who would use it to always bring the family together.

Since them, my aunt has been living in that house, but it is always open to the whole family, and on special occasions such as Christmas, New Year, anniversaries and carnival, all the family celebrates together in her house, and those who live in other cities, stay in her house, and are very welcomed.

All of those lovely moments of the whole family together are in my memory, and to visit my aunt`s house is to visit the set of my family’s movie; while I’m walking through it, the best pictures of this movie come to my mind, and I feel participating of something special.
