Extended Family (Cousins, Aunts, Uncles, In-Laws, ETC)

I consider all my mum or dad's cousin's children as my own cousins even though they'd be something like my third cousins. My maternal grandfather has 5 siblings and my maternal grandmother had two. On my dad's side, there is his stepmother's family (his mother died when he was small) and his dad's siblings.

Most of my mother's family live in the UK, I have an uncle (actually my dad's cousin, oh well) who occasionally lives in Saudi Arabia and the rest are in Pakistan.

I come from a big extended family, my dad has four brothers all of them got a kids except one and he has three sister and all of them got kids too. My mom has three brothers they got kids too and four sister (two of them are half sister). I got 25 cousins from my dad's side most of them are married and got kids as well (some of my second cousins are about to get married) and I got 23 cousins (all of them are just little kids) from my mom's side only two of them are married and got kids.

My family is sort of odd, I guess, but not that much. My mom has one younger sister, who got married seven years ago and still doesn't have any kids.

My dad, however, has two older sisters and three older brothers, two of which are a set of twins. My oldest uncle on that side only has one kid, a boy who's eighteen years older than me. Needless to say, I've never really been close to him, and that's okay with me. My oldest aunt has four kids, two girls and two boys, the youngest of which is five years older than me. I'm really close to him though because we grew up together with my other aunt's one son, who's two and a half years younger than me. The twin brothers don't have any kids, nor are they married. They lived with my grandparents until they were around forty five, when things started to go downhill and they sort of got a wake up call that their parents were going to die soon. The one I was never that close to moved out, and the last time I even saw him was almost four years ago, at his grandmother's (my great grandmother's) funeral. His parents don't even want to see him anymore, which I don't blame them for. The other one who I've always been really close to still lives there with my grandparents, but he does more work now than he used to, and doesn't really interact with anyone but me and my younger cousin.

On my mom's side, I have a billion and one cousins, second cousins, third cousins, and even fourth cousins. I don't get to see them as much as I'd like though, because they're on my mom's mom's side, and they haven't been as in touch since she died seven years ago. It sucks, since I love spending time with them, but there's not really much I can do about it. I don't really like my mom's dad's side though; they're very stuffy and rude about things, which is why I now avoid them as much as possible.

I don't know at least 3/4 of my family because we are so spread out. I'm talking California (where I am), Texas, Oregon, Alambama, England, Austria, and the Phillipins. But I love my mom's side of my cousins. =)

My family is huge and generally pretty close-knit. I know the majority of my aunts/uncles/cousins very well. I'm super close with one of my older cousins and with one of my younger ones, too. They're like brothers to me and I'd do anything for them.

I adore my extended family. Mom has 3 siblings, and Dad has 2. My cousins on my Mom's said are so close, we're more like brothers and sisters. I love spending time with them and we're all pretty close in age, so it's perfect. My Dad's family we don't see too often, as they live in B.C and Alberta, but when we do it's a total blast.

I've got a huge extended family. I don't even know half of them. :cheese:

My mom's got nine other siblings, so there's that side of the family.

And my dad's got a real father who died but had a son (and maybe even more children) with some other lady.
My step-father and my grandmother had a son together as well.

It's pretty complicated, but I'm determined to get to the bottom of it.
Know who every single one of my family member is. :tehe:

My mom has 6 brothers and sisters, so I have like 15 cousins on that side of the family (plus some are married and have children so I have cousin-in-laws and cousins once removed) and my dad has 4 brothers and sisters, so I have 4 cousins on that side.
I love having a big family. I'm at my mom's younger sister's house, and she has two daughters around my age and we're like sisters.

Weirdest extended family in the world award goes to mine
My dads sister and her husband arent bad but my moms side is very strange.
My aunt and uncle think I'm going to hell because of my taste in music and clothes...They tend to stereotype me as a satanic worshipper and yet i go to church

My three cousins are completely abnormal. My oldest, Genny worked in a graveyard, got a degree in embalming dead people and has had three husbands...her third one looks like Bill from Harry Potter.

The twins (who are 27)...Elliot is normal ish....but Damien >.< He talks like he's from 1890's England and dresses like he's from 1910. He is just all around strange (ever heard of gothic folk music?)

They each have two children....actually Damien has one, but the children are all under ten. I love them to death and stuff, but they are scary as heck at times...They locked me in a bathroom for an hour with my best friend at christmastime....

yeah thats pretty much my extended family

Double post >.<

I love about half of my extended family. I... don't think I've ever met my mom's side because they're all stuck in a different country. All of my dad's side lives here. And I have a few people that I'll consider my cousin because they're related... somehow. We just don't know how xD

I'm really close to my dad's sister and all her children (well... like, 3/4 of them). It's funny, because the other day, my mom complains about how it seems like they all talk to me more than her. My aunt's gonna be... 50? And all her kids are 25+, and my mom's 39, so that's why she's complaining xD

And I used to be close with one of my dad's other younger brother (he has... three?) and... I miss him so much... He got married and moved to another city. We used to always visit him but .. none of us likes his family. Honestly, I dislike his 16year old step-daughter, her 11-year old brother, AND her 5-year old sister. And I especially hate his wife, 'cause I know she hates me too probably. I miss him like hell.

My family is pretty small, very close knit. Though I just got a sister in Law and
I love her, she's really cool.

I have a pretty big extended family. My mom's side is pretty small but my dad has four brothers and they all have about three kids so I have several cousins. We are all really close and I love it. :)

Three aunts, one deceased aunt, two uncles, one step-uncle, one deceased uncle, six cousins, and one second cousin that I know of.

Most of them are from my mom's side of the family. One of my aunts and one of my uncles are from my dad's side while everyone else is from my mom's.

I get along best with my youngest cousin, though. It's probably because she's one year older than me.

My family is also quite large :|
But I'm not really close to any of them. Only immediate family
I don't even really know my dad's side anyway.

My mom has eleven brothers and sisters (all together) and my dad has a semi-large family, so I have many different cousins. Most who I've never met or never heard about.

I'm closest to my cousin Paula, who is six weeks older than me. We've pretty much been close since birth. We both love wrestling, similer taste in music, and she's very trustworthy. I love her to death.

Well, I'm in a Filipino family for one thing. So plenty of cousins, aunts, uncles running about ... and I think a good chunk of them aren't even related to me and are just very close family friends. But, of course, I call them "kuya," "ate," "auntie," "uncle," etc. anyway because of how it is.

Hm, I think we have quite a small extended family. It's tricky because we have lost contact with three of my mum's brothers - so we've no idea how big our family really is.
We only really see my dad's family at Christmas. It's our annual family get to together on Sunday. It's a whole day of my 10 year old cousin following me around the house and playing lame games to cover up the awkwardness.

I have three grandmothers, two grandfathers, one great-grandmother, five aunts, five uncles, ten cousins (one she's married to my cousin, another because she's the mother of one of my second-cousins), and three second cousins.

I have one grandmother, a mother, a birth father, a little brother, one older brother (though one of my mom's friends is like my brother, too.), several aunts.

The only extended family I really spend any time with at all or talk to a lot is my Uncle Gordie, though. He's my hero; he's more of a father to me than my birth father. I just got some really sad news about him today, though.
