Things you do with your family?

So what do you do with your family?

Do you enjoy spending time with your family or is it seen as a waste of time?

I watch a lot of sport with my Dad and younger brother. It’s a good bonding session watching the football with a few pints! I also play bowls with my Dad. I’ve never really spent a lot of time with my Mum, not sure why that is and I doubt that’ll ever change.

I really enjoy spending time with my family. Finding spare time to be with my family is becoming increasingly difficult but I make the most of what I do with them.

And if they get me take this spike and, you put the spike in my heart.

Good on you man.
Other than spitting venom at each other constantly, our family really didn't do much together! Actually I used to watch football [soccer] and tennis with my Dad sometimes. Mum and I watched a movie together every few months.

Now I'm in a different time-zone than them so it makes doing things together even more difficult!

I visit my mother at least once every fortnight. We will usually have dinner and a chat, we often end up with a mountain of books, encyclopaedias and maps strewn across the room as we talk about the world and debate and challenge ideas.

I help my father out at his business regularly. Our relationship is a gentle one as for many years we have not been on good terms. We dont socialize.

Im good friends with one of my sisters and we often do stuff and go places together or call around each others houses and just chill out. My other sister lives in the Philippines so I rarely see her, we email each other every few months.

We do not do things as a complete family and it is extremely rare for all of us to be together at once.

I play Wii Tennis with my parents all the time. After I got a Wii and they saw it, my mom ran out and bought one the day after Christmas! xD They absolutely LOVE it! My dad managed to hurt his right shoulder playing tennis, and then he reinjured it doing something else, so now he has to play left handed, but he's pretty good. Lol. My parents are both pro-level now. But seriously, we have a blast!

We'll watch movies or have dinner together and chit-chat too. Ever since I moved out a few years ago, my relationship with them is MUCH better. =)

I barely do anything with my parents, I eat with them, but that's about it. But I do a lot of things with my twin brother, we have all the same friends, and we are both die hard sports fans, so we watch sports together.

"How to hit home runs: I swing as hard as I can, and I try to swing right through the ball...The harder you grip the bat, the more you can swing it through the ball, and the farther the ball will go. I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can." Babe Ruth

I visit my parents' house a few times a month, usually for dinner. One of our favorite things to do is have me come over to their place and cook for them. It means they don't have to cook, and I get a free meal! Works out well, and I do enjoy that time spent with them. I see my sister a lot more than I do my parents, and I consider her to be one of my best friends.

I spend a considerable amount of time with my younger sister. We get along pretty well. Go shopping with mom sometimes, but she mainly drives me nutters. Dads very quiet, but we hang out and watch movies together sometimes. My older sister is on my **** list right now, she scheduled her vacation eight months in advance on the week she knows I'm graduating.

I eat dinner with my family and we go on a family vacation every year usually. I watch sports and go to games with my dad. I play ping pong with my dad and sister. That's about it. I do my own thing most of the time.
