i'm lucky in that regard
my brother, his wife, mike and i are all really good friends  [thumbsup]
I like my dad. ;D

...and my baby brother.

They're in FL so we don't get to do many holidays with them.

Ts family is all spread out too.

I can tolerate half of them...

She feels the same.

our families are pretty spread out too

my dad is in VA
my mom is in NM
mike's bro is in ID
both of his parents live in CT, but not together

makes the holidays tough
we get invitations from them all...

before my nephew was born, we spent xmas eve, and xmas day driving all over the place
i've learned to slow it down :)

Yeah...

trying to be everywhere on the holidays cuts into the drinking. ;D

Most of Laura's family is in the Seattle area.  Her brother is in DC and Aunt Julie is in Oakland, CA.

My sisters (natural) are near Tampa, FL and Jacksonville, FL, and somewhere in Ohio.

My parents (adoptive) are in Jacksonville and we never talk or see them.  My natural father is near Jacksonville and I have zero contact with him or his wife.  My adopted siblings are mostly in Florida.  I have zero contact with them.

We do holidays with L's family or friends.

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.
