Yes, & no. We haven't had a family reunion just for the sake opf it. What happens, is that if a spoecial event comes up, such as an important birthday, we use it as an excuse to get as many of the family as podssible together. Two weeks ago it was my cousins birthday. There were over 100 people there, many of them family. It was great to see so many cousins, etc. Even my 87 year old Aunty was there.
To us, that is a big family reunion.

I think since we have many older ones now living so far apart, it may be tough getting them all together because of health and age issues....but they are going to try to do it....

No, I have never planned a family reunion. I would never wish to have that chore. As I come from a very very very large family. I know I would forget something or someone and have to much stress.
I have however planned a small outing with my immediate sisters, brothers and their families. I have 7 of those. It has always went well.

If it were for a small reunion, ok but planning for a huge one could be rather overwhelming...unless you have experience with this sort of thing.....

The only family reunions we have is for marriages or deaths! I haven't seen some of my cousins for over ten years now, and it seems that each time we say we must meet again and it never happens, it's just formalities. I would like a big family reunion but I can't see it coming together to be honest, a lot of water under the bridge and all that. I think I'm the black sheep or should that be black wolf of the family!

I certainly will be meeting many people for the very first time. I will be seeing people that I havent seen in many years.....You see after all this time , they have a huge one planned and its just a few months away.
