[quote=Anonymous]I have a pretty large extended family - 35 first cousins who in turn had a lot of kids, a lot of whom are now getting married. We already live far away from both sides of our family (in opposite directions, so no combining visits for us), so visiting each side a few times a year adds up on its own (esp now that DC is big enough to need a seat on the plane) before you even add in weddings, baby showers, etc. that we get invited to. I love my cousins and their kids, but unless it's one that I'm particularly close to (like that I keep in touch with regularly outside of big events like reunions), I send a gift but do not attend. Often it's a great chance to skype with clusters of family who do go, and no one holds it against us.[/quote]
