ABOUT THE BOOK:
Nearly everyone thinks their own family is “nutty” or has at least one or two nuts. With 101 stories of wacky yet lovable relatives, funny foibles, and holiday meltdowns, this book is usually hilarious and occasionally poignant. This book shows readers that we all have the same family matters and what really matters is families. It is a quirky and fun holiday book, and a great bridal shower or wedding gift!
MY THOUGHTS:
Everyone has that crazy aunt, uncle, brother or at least an experience with an odd family member. I have many memories from Christmas parties, so many that we don’t even have parties anymore due to the craziness! This Chicken Soup book “Family Matters” is all about the craziness in our families! I can relate to many of the stories, others made me laugh so hard I almost peed, others made me feel like maybe my family isn’t that crazy! It is full of 101 great stories that are sure to cheer you up, make you smile, and make you feel like you are not alone! “Family Matters” is so far my favorite Chicken Soup for the Soul book. I also think it would be a great gift for anyone anytime! There is nothing religious or sad either, all the stories are funny and amusing! The introduction is also written by Bruce Jenner of the Kardashian family!

My aunt plays in a softball league and at one game the other team didn’t show up but they didnt have enough players to get the win. My aunt game over to my mom and started calling her “marie” the name of one player on the team. My mom had to pretend to be marie so my aunt’s team would get the win. They continue to talk about it to this day. Thanks!

When I was a teenager I got these new pair of pants that I just loved and I really wanted to wear them to school that day for class pictures. When I went to put them on they were too small and didn’t fit. I couldn’t believe it I just got them when I took a closser look I could see that they had been taken in. Come to find out my little sister wanted to were them the day before and sewed them up to fit her. Sisters you got to love them.
I have a certain family member who has a hard time holding her bladder when she laughs, which has been very funny on numerous occasions!

My aunt is great. She will go up and start talking to anyone, it doesn’t matter who. While I am sitting there cringing over some of the things she says, other people seem to take it in stride and just laugh it off. I love her dearly, but she is a little nuts sometimes.
I remember one Christmas at my grandmother’s. She had this huge table with all the food on it. It was a “foldable” table that had an extra piece in the middle. Right when we was sitting down to eat, the table fell and so did our food!
