MAKING TIME FOR FAMILY YEAR-ROUND An Attitude of Gratitude
The air is cool and crisp, pumpkin-spice everything is flying off the shelves, leaves are falling, and the holiday cheer is flowing — Thanksgiving is almost here. A favorite holiday for many, Thanksgiving focuses on bringing family and friends together to enjoy a delicious meal of turkey, mashed potatoes, green beans, gravy, corn, dinner rolls, and dressing. It’s one of the only days of the year where it’s okay to go back for seconds, or even thirds — and don’t forget the pies for dessert! Each year, when Thanksgiving rolls around, I like to reflect on all that I am thankful for and the many blessings that have graced me over the course of the year. While 2022 was another challenging year as we still have been navigating the pandemic together as a nation, I’m thankful for the
health of my family, friends, staff, and clients. I’m grateful that we have been able to fulfill our passion and do what we do best — serve our clients. I’m thankful for every smile from a stranger, every act of kindness that I’ve witnessed, and all of the positivity that outweighs the negativity in our world. These things reassure me that good exists in strong numbers! Most of all, I’m thankful for my family. On Nov. 25, 2022, which is the day after Thanksgiving, we celebrate Family Day, a day set aside to honor and recognize the importance of family, both biological and ties created through friendship — we sometimes form bonds that are just as strong as our family relationships. At Malloy Law, we have our family of team members who work closely to deliver the best results for our clients.

Prioritize meal times, even if it means penciling it into your schedule. Bonding over a sit-down dinner is crucial! Attend community events together as a family. On a weekend, check out the local farmers market together or catch some live music in the park, even if it’s just for an hour. Share your household chores! While nobody enjoys cleaning, it can be more enjoyable to do it together and can spark some great conversations, too! Help your children with their homework. Instead of passing this task off to someone else, showing interest in your child’s studies is important to them. Find a mutual hobby to share with another family member. If you enjoy art, see if there’s a local art class you can sign up for together. On the same note, take a yoga class together or join a book club.

This year, in honor of Family Day, one thing that I believe we all could be a little better at is making good, quality time for our family. In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, both personally and professionally, it can be difficult to make time, even for a sit-down meal, but as many unfortunate families have learned through the pandemic, sometimes life is just too short. We need to make time now! Here are a few ways to create quality time, even with a hectic schedule.
•
Time spent with family isn’t just for the holidays — it’s a year-round blessing to have these special individuals in our life and it’s important to enjoy the company of our loved ones!
From our family here at Malloy Law Offices to you and yours, Happy Thanksgiving!
“Most of all, I’m thankful for my family.”

During the spring, the southwest part of England hosts one of the strangest sports each year — cheese rolling. People worldwide travel to watch and participate as contestants launch themselves down a hill in pursuit of a round of cheese. But how did this sport come to be? It’s kind of a mystery. What Is Cheese Rolling? All This for a Truckle of Cheese?
No one really knows the origins of cheese rolling. For as long as the locals can remember, the sport has always been there. Several theories
attempt to explain how the sport came about. One theory states that the competition started in the 15th century, and racing down the hill was a way to establish grazing rights on the commons. Others say the game has a pagan origin, where people would throw bundles of brushwood down the hill to represent the new year once winter ends. Although its roots are unknown, locals have kept score since the 1970s and watched it gain in popularity over the years. What are the rules? Competitors begin the race at the top of Cooper’s Hill in Brockworth, Gloucester, which slopes downward at an almost 90-degree angle. Then, when the master of ceremonies tells you to go, you launch yourself down the mountain. The first person to grab the 8-pound wheel of double cream Gloucester (which has never been done before) or cross the finish line at the bottom (about 200 yards) will win the race and the cheese. You don’t need to meet any criteria or fill out any paperwork to participate. Simply arrive at the top of the hill before the race begins, and you’re all set. But participating is at your own risk: Many people suffer severe injuries because you’re going down the hill at speeds reaching 70 mph. The sport has gained many fans over the years — around 15,000 attendees come to view the spectacle annually. The media attention further spreads the interest and popularity of cheese rolling. Many YouTube channels cover the sport, and a Netflix show titled “We Are the Champions” has an

Whitefish Mountain Resort, Montana While Whitefish Mountain Resort was originally a sleepy, quiet, and remote ski resort, it has gained popularity over the past few years, but it still remains an under-the-radar ski destination with friendly locals and smaller crowds. For beautiful, lush Montana views and no ski lift lines, Whitefish is a must! Mad River Glen, Vermont For an authentic, deep-mountain experience, Mad River Glen is considered the best skiing mountain in the East. One of the best features of the resort is that it has single-chair chairlifts — and no snowboarders! The runs are long and the sights are gorgeous while providing an amazing ski run, throwback style!
