Family

So anyone who really knows me, knows that I am particularly close with my dad's family and not as close to my mom's family. When I woke up this morning I noticed that on my facebook I had a new message. Normally this would not be a big deal at all, but when I checked. It was a response I had sent to my cousins almost a month ago. As I had said in my last post, I'm living in Austin, Texas for the summer but I have family around the Houston area.

In the email, we decided to meet sometime when it was both convenient for us and hopefully I'll get a chance to see my other cousin, her sister and my aunt and uncle.

This got me thinking that I would really love to see more of the family that I'm not that close to. Here lies the problem, even being in Texas, the closest family is still more than 3 hours away. The more I think about it, the more I want to plan a trip to see them. But how do you pick who is more important to see. Who is worth the so many hour drive?

I would really love to see any of the family but I just don't even know where to start. Any suggestions?
