I don't really see them often at all. I've always lived in a different province from the rest of our family so for a long time, I'd only see them at Christmas. Then we moved even farther away and we'd only see them once every other year or so when we'd go visit them or one family would visit us in the summertime or something. I've always gotten along well with my family--most of us have the same sense of humour and they're all very, very nice and welcoming. I feel comfortable around all of my mom's side and same with most of my dad's side, although I see them even less. My brother and I are the youngest in dad's side of the family by roughly a decade though so there isn't any common ground with us and the cousins there. We get along better now, I think, that we're all adults but as kids I didn't really like visiting dad's side much because there was such a big age gap and there was never anything to do.
I never see family now, though. I don't live with my parents most of the time so even when parts of the extended family show up to visit (usually as part of a business trip, haha), I'm rarely there to see them. My mom heads out west to visit everyone once or twice a year or goes on vacations with them to other destinations but I'm never invited on those or they happen when I'm in school and can't make it anyway. :c I did get a chance to head out to see family last year--we all drove up to cottage country in northern Saskatchewan where most people camped but, thankfully, my immediate family nabbed a cottage. XD; That was fun and I was glad to see everyone but I was sick that week so I had to retire home to sleep really early every night and probably looked miserable/unapproachable to mostly everyone. Then I also had to leave earlier in the week because uhh... I wanted to see the last Harry Potter movie with my friends back in Toronto on opening night, lmao.
Actually, I did see one family fairly often. My dad's sister and her daughter lived in Toronto for years--before my family moved there, even--and we got together a few times a year for dinner, including on big holidays. My cousin is about a decade older than me though so we have nothing in common and don't really get along well because of it. But her mother moved to Washington, DC the other year so I never see her anymore and my cousin really only interacted with us when she was living with her mother and lives in a distant suburb now so... I dunno. I saw them once last year when my cousin bought her first house and had a housewarming party and I haven't seen them since.
Long story, short: I get along quite well with most of my family, but I don't see them very often at all. I think I'd be best friends with some of my cousins if we had lived closer to each other, honestly, but as it is now we're not very close at all even if we get along well.
