Planning a family reunion, holiday or celebration isn’t easy but rest assured it is worth it.
It is a job usually done by one and enjoyed by all. Getting a date, finding the accommodation and organising everyone is difficult, but it is important. It doesn’t matter how large or small your family is, getting everyone together keeps the generations connected. Here are the top 3 benefits.
- Quality Time
A family reunion means scheduling time together. Often we are too busy to visit a brother or to go for a drink with an Aunt. A reunion gives you un-rushed quality time with each other.
- Family History
There is always something to learn from your family members, whether it is being told stories from Grandparents or Grandkids teaching an older generation about the internet or current music. A family reunion allows the time for these special conversations.
- Making Memories
A family reunion means making memories. You may get together as an annual tradition or it may be a one off celebration but spending family time makes valuable memories and photos for all generations. Having fun together as a loving supportive network of family members is priceless.
Finally, it is simply an excuse for a holiday which let’s face it we all love. Getting away from everyday lives and enjoying a different environment builds family bonds and gives everyone a new lease of life.
Home Farm House is perfect for a large family reunion of 3 generations. The swimming pool provides fun for all ages, while the large kitchen/diner with table seating for 12 is great for those special family meals. With a larger garden and BBQ for summer get togethers and a cosy lounge with open fire for winter breaks, any time of year is good. And the separate cottage can give grandparents that little bit of peace when they need it.
So remember to make time this year for your family and start making memories!
