We took a big family vacation with all of DH's family last year (his brothers, their wives and sons, aunts, uncles, grandmother and parents). My IL's rented a big beach house for a week. We have another trip planned for July of this year, and I'm so excited to bring DS with us....I think he'll have a lot of fun with his cousins.

A few weekends back most of us spent the weekend in a ski cabin in NH. DH, FIL, and both BsIL went mountain climbing while the girls and kids hung out in front of the fire, lol.

I'm not close to my family, and it pleases me to know end that I'm now part of a family that can spend a week together and not want kill each other.
