I belong to a family of 9 and when we grew up as adult, we separate ways.However, during 31st of December, we are together again because of our reunion.Because of this, my brothers and sisters together with our parents are getting closer.This is the time of sharing ideas, eating together, laughing and spending time together.A time also to reminisce our childhood memories together.Before,we were just 9 of us, now we are 22 including our own children.It's not yet that big number because we are not yet that old.I am excited to see my family again because I haven't seen them for many months.My family is my treasure so I do give importance to family reunion.How about you?

I wish someday we will have a family reunion. I know it would be fun since I will meet relatives I havent met yet. This is an event I look forward.

Family reunions sounds awesome and i've always wanted to experience one! I'm quite fond of the idea where families come together, laughing with each other and showing that they care for each other =)

We try to get together whenever the opportunity permits. Many of us are living far from one another, but we make sure that we keep in touch in all ways possible, telephone, email, letters, and so on. And, reunion from time to time is a wonderful occasion for all of us, getting together after so many years some times. That's the value of reunions !

We have clan reunion actually. In my mother's side, the reunion is usually held after Christmas and before New Year. In my father's side, it's every summer, during school vacation. Unfortunately, I was not able to attend such occasions lately and I don't think I'll be able to do so this year and next summer. My budget is tight nowadays. I am planning to make a website for both clans though to compensate for my absences.

We have usually two family reunions a year one on each side the family. Normally for us these take place in the summer. I enjoy seeing family i havnt seen in a long time but my husband hates going to these events because typically he dont know anyone and its alittle odd for him.
