[quote=Anonymous]I grew up as one of 6 kids and with parents who were also from large families. Sure, things like travel are easier with money, but we didn't have it growing up and neither did any of our aunts/uncles. We still spent a lot of time together. I think geographic proximity is the key. Also, my parents really viewed their siblings as friends. We got together with family way more than any family friends. We went to each other's houses for dinner, parents played cards together. We had picnics at parks. With so many cousins there was always a graduation party, wedding, baby shower to go to so we saw a lot of family. Now I live 1,000 miles away and rarely see my cousins, but they still see each other quite a bit because most of them all leave within an hour of each other. It does help to have someone take the lead on planning. [/quote]
