[quote=Anonymous]Many of us grew up this way. My mom has 13 siblings and whoever could make it piled into grammas house. While it was great fun for the cousins - we got to play together all day - most of the adults hated it. Hubby and I live 350 miles from our closest relative. No one is ever invited for holidays. We both worked and our kids were in too many traveling sports that this became “our” time as a family. No regrets. There are now 10 of us - w grandkids and spouses, and we have enough space to host them for a day or two. I put my need for order aside and hubby cleans up after every meal. Kids bring sides (or make them at my house) and it works out. But no one stays for 4/5 days. [/quote]
