I try to keep in touch with my Nottingham rellies (where my parents are from) as well as far flung ones in the States. I only have 4 1st cousins and we attempt to meet up as much as we can (all in different parts of the country). I also have 6 step-brothers and sisters as well as a big brother and a half sister - so organinising Christmas is like a military campaign in our family!!! This year my DB and his have asked us along with our mum, stepdad and nana to theirs - so no cooking this year (considering I will be 37 weeks pg it is a good thing!)
