There are five people in my family, and my parents have a bird and dog. I have two older brothers, and the oldest works as a graphic designer for a computer company. My dad is retired, but he keeps himself busy hiking, taking care of his grandchildren, and volunteering in the community. My mom still runs a fruit shop. My grandmother lives around the corner from our house;my grandfather passed away about a year ago, but grandma keeps busy in her garden. I guess you could say we're a pretty close family. We like doing things together,mainly because we have so many things in common
