Jennifer looks at her own family and introduces you to Love the Coopers, in theaters November 13, in this sponsored post. Read on for the opportunity to win a $50 Visa gift card.
I am 45 years old and as late as last Christmas, I had 2 grandparents. My husband’s grandmother is still living (and thriving!). My own grandmother died right after Christmas last year. She had struggled with memory loss and dementia for several years, but for 94 1/2 years old, she was in pretty good shape physically and even mentally.
For the last 3 years, she was in an assisted living facility close to me. We visited her there, and brought her out on occasion for family gatherings, but sometimes it confused her to come out. She was always so happy, saying how nice it was that we got her, and she loved seeing us all together, but often as soon as she finished that pumpkin pie, she’d get restless and say that someone should bring her home. She thought they’d be worried about her. It was easy enough for one of us to take her back, so we began planning that someone would probably do that after an hour or two.
Last year the Sunday before Christmas we got together with extended family for our lunch and gift exchange. We included Mimi, of course, and as always she talked about how nice it was to see everyone, and how happy it made her. She ate a nice big lunch, and just sat quietly in a comfy chair as the kids opened their gifts and we visited. We kept waiting for her to say that she wanted to go home, but she didn’t. None of us knew that a week and half later, she’d be gone, but we are thankful of the good time that we all had on that last family gathering.
Love the Coopers
I love a good holiday movie focusing on family and can’t wait to see Love the Coopers when it comes out November 13. It’s a great cast, as well!
Love The Coopers follows The Cooper clan as four generations of extended family come together for their annual Christmas Eve celebration. As the evening unfolds, a series of unexpected visitors and unlikely events turn the night upside down, leading them all toward a surprising rediscovery of family bonds and the spirit of the holiday.

The best of getting together with my family is the always the blast that we have and see them smile sharing stories and being together makes it special to enjoy together. Thanks for the awesome chance!
Philip Lawrence says
The worst thing about family get togethers is that my family has all passed away so I am the only one left which makes for a very quiet get together!
Barbara Long says
The best thing about holiday get-togethers is spending the whole day with our children and grandchildren.
Frank P says
One of the best things is the family meal!
Jenilee Dunson says
We live far apart, so when we get together, we all really enjoy eachother’s company. The worst part is time goes by too fast, and saying goodbye is so sad.
Buddy Garrett says
The best part is spending time with family and friends.
TallulahJane says
I follow you via Bloglovin’ as TallulahJane.
Elizabeth Parker says
The worst thing, when my whole family gets together, no matter the holiday, would be the arguing. My youngest sibling is a teenager with ODD, and tends to start arguments when around enough people for lengths of time.
The best part is seeing how happy our kids are to see their family. We live so far away that it doesn’t happen often. :/
TallulahJane says
I follow you via instagram as tallulahjane65.

Peggy Rydzewski says
The best part is hearing the family laughter
Allyson Bossie says
Well it is always a barrel of monkeys at get togethers. How drunk is dad: can´t sit up, or can sit up but has rude obnoxious things to say or passively agressively bring up. Which personality is mom going to be is even more worrisome because some are angry and shreaking and some are so uncomfortable from the angry silence. On really rare occasions mom is fun. I hate family get togethers and avoid them for the most part 😀
Rob says
Family gatherings are a time to reconnect, face-to-face. It offers a chance to fully engage those we love as we laugh and cry together over past happenings and things yet to come.
Marie L says
The best thing about getting together is seeing everyone we haven’t seen in awhile. The worst thing in sometimes everyone doesn’t get along.

Tosha H says
When I was a kid the best part was seeing my cousins I didn’t often see, and now as an adult with just my immediate family it’s all about the food!
Sherry Conrad says
The best thing about our family get togethers is that there are so many, both the gatherings and people – we live very close to hubs mom and a lot of his siblings and we all enjoy each others company. Everyone is welcome, so when we know someone doesn’t have a place to go, they are family if only for the day. Even in laws, exes, etc are welcomed and made to feel wanted and loved. I really lucked out in the family department.
Barb Stenby says

My family rarely has gotten together. When we have, the best thing has been seeing folks I haven’t had many opportunities to see/talk to. To the best of my recollection, they’ve usually been pleasant events.

I don’t like to dwell on the worst things so I will say the best thing is being around family you haven’t seen in a long time. ALL of my family except my son has left this earth so you should all be thankful for whatever family we do have left. I am thankful to have my son and his father.

I have a huge blended family (my folks are both remarried and their parents are also divorced/remarried), we are each individually a handful. But when you get us all together you’ve got twenty and thirty somethings at the kids table because 15 years ago they were the kids and we still are since we all refuse to have babies so far.

The worst thing is that my family lives in a different city (about two hours away) and my in-laws are divorced but don’t get along at all, so we spend most of the holidays traveling to see everyone (my Mom, my Mother-in-Law, my Father-in-Law, and my husband’s best friend’s family).

What is the best or worst thing about your family get togethers? The worst thing is that I can’t get everyone together. Some family members won’t associate with others at all.

I grew up in a family of Mennonites, essentially. Family get-togethers were always really complicated and weird, but as kids, we didn’t really notice.

Family
Mary W says
Family get togethers can be so much fun when we remember to laugh and sing and share stories and forget about the stress and tension of the outside world.
Connie Lee says
The best thing is all the 14 brothers and sisters of my husband’s family are still living and healthy, the oldest being 78, and are able to attend a Christmas dinner every year together.
Wendy says

the best thing about family is the laughter.

Best is sharing and laughing over memories.
Liberty says
The best thing is making all the food together 🙂

Best thing would be the food, traditions, and visiting with family. The worst thing is usually some sort of family drama or argument lol and the noise level and not getting a word in

The best thing is just being able to spend time with the people I love most.
Debbie F says
The worst thing is that my mother is there. 🙁

Tara O. says
The best thing about our family gatherings is getting to see people I don’t see very often and the worst thing is trying to catch up with everyone when there are so many people to talk to!
Eric says
The best part is my dad’s thunderous farts!
Laura O. says
I’m 42 and never knew my grandparents. It amazes me that there are people in their 40s who still have living grandparents.
My grandfathers both died before I was born, and my grandmothers when I was very young. My teenage kids only have one grandparent left, my mother. My father has been deceased for 10 years, my husband’s mother died when he was a teenager, so I never met her. His dad lived across the country and died when my daughter was 3, and my son wasn’t yet born, so my kids never knew either of their paternal grandparents.
So I’d have to say the worst part about holidays for me is not having a large extended family to celebrate with. It’s just my siblings, their spouses, and nieces and nephews.
Ashley turicik says
The beat part is seeing all the kids together

Sara B. says

Estelle Steenbergen says
The worst thing about our get-togethers are the sleeping arrangements. Half of us are too cheap to spring for hotels, and those of us that do want to rent a room are always talked out of it by “Aww, no! Don’t get a room! There’s plenty of room here!”. But there’s not. Ever.

The best things about my family get togethers, especially during the Holidays, is that we actually get to spend time together, since we never get to!

The best thing is the laughter, we are a goofy family and our get togethers are fun. For me though the worst part is the change in tradition.
