Hey, where's all the blocks, Peeps? Is this the "lull" between the Eager Beavers and the Last Minute Dashers? :D

Janice we don’t have many cousins and no aunts and uncles left. But I have 3 daughters, 1 son, 2 SIL’s and 5 grandchildren. Very immediate family is 11. Sister has 4 sons, 4 DIL’s and 3 grandchildren. For our total of 22, we have never been all together. Mom’s memorial service is coming up in August and all of my sister’s family should be there ( service is in town where they all live ) but My oldest grandkids both have newer jobs they can’t take time from and my son won’t be able to make it

I guess I spoke a bit too soon. I do have some paternal cousins we lost track of years ago. My husband, same thing, cousins lost track of 50 years ago and nobody seems the least bit inclined to reunite. I have two sons but neither is married yet and so grandchildren aren't likely anytime soon. So we just make do with the the fun maternal cousins we have in the UK who are wonderful. Don't get to see them often but it's always a pleasure. Hundreds on your husband's side? Good heavens.

My family is tiny too. My mother had 1 brother and 1 sister, her brother had 1 child (who had none), her sister had 2 children (each had 1 child) my father was an only child. So I have 1 aunt 1 uncle, and 3 cousins, and 2 of whatever you call your cousin's kids. I have 2 siblings each has 2 kids, we have no children.
My husbands family is huge, he has literally hundreds of cousins (his mom and dad were one of 9 and 13)

Well, I have been home for a week and finally got started on my blocks. This is for Travelinggramma and is from the book Stars by Magic. She just numbers them instead of giving them names. This is #18.
