Question #8

Tell about your family reunions.
Growing up my dad's side of the family had a family reunion on the second Sunday of August. They still do. I haven't been to one since my dad died, I hope to change that someday so my husband can meet that side of my family. We would all get together at the park (because we don't fit into anyone's homes there are so many of us), and have a BBQ and just hang out. We usually had a pool at the park so the kids would usually end up there if the weather was nice.
My mom's side of the family I remember one particular reunion...our family comes from Germany and when I was younger (maybe 8ish) we had some of the Germany family in South Dakota. I really wish I remembered more of it. We also get together in a park and just do a BBQ and hang out.
I have to be honest I really suck at remembering who everyone is..I can't even name all my cousins, and I was in my 20's before I could list all my uncles (still working on aunts). Because I can't remember everyone I'm uncomfortable with the reunions because I feel bad for not knowing.
