Family Get-Together's

Since it was the Christmas season, I had a lot of family parties that I went too recently. On boxing day my aunt held a little get together for her closest family and friends and I got to see some of my family that I haven't seen in a lot time. A few of my family friends were there and I remember back to the times when we were all so close. I would always refer to them as my "cousins" instead of family friends because that's how close we were. It was weird to see how much we had all changed but I really enjoyed myself. It made me miss the old days when seeing each other was a regular thing. Now that most of us are grown, life is catching up to us and we have busier schedules and not as much free time as we'd like. I hope that in the future we can make more time for each other so that family get together's can be more frequent.
