Then your response seems to be lacking mi familia.
Sí, mi familia y yo nos reímos mucho .....
and if you must use tu, then add. ¿Y tú? Te ríes mucho con tu familia? (ask him the same question in return)
Reírse is a reflexive verb, and días is masculine:
¿Te ríes mucho con tu familia? Sí, nos reímos mucho durante los días festivos.
Other than that it looks good.
Thankyou for all your feedback, I appreciate it very much!
I am not so sure that "reír" must always be used in its pronominal form, as a reflexive verb.
In my Harper Collins desktop dictionary, I find "reír" listed as an intransitive verb:
1 [persona] to laugh
No me hagas reír. = Don't make me laugh.
echarse a reír = to burst out laughing
MODISMO: reír como un loco = to laugh one's head off
REFRANES: El que ríe el último, ríe mejor o más fuerte. = He who laughs last laughs longest.
2 (liter) [ojos] to laugh (liter), sparkle
[campo, mañana, naturaleza] to sparkle, glow
Next it lists reír as a transitive verb:
to laugh at
Todos le ríen los chistes. = Everybody laughs at his jokes.
And in the pronominal form, as a reflexive verb, reírse:
1 to laugh
reírse con algo/alguien Todos se ríen con sus chistes. = Everybody laughs at his jokes.
Siempre nos reímos con él. = We always have a good laugh with him.
reírse **de alguien/algo** = to laugh at somebody/something
Se está riendo de mí. He's laughing at me.
¿De qué te ríes? What are you laughing at?
MODISMO: ¡Déjame que me ría! That's a good one!
And look at this odd translation, in which the reflexive form can mean "estar roto":
Estos zapatos se ríen. These shoes are split wide open at the toes. La chaqueta se me ríe por los codos. My jacket has worn through at the >elbows.

Maybe to be a bit different, romango can have his family laugh at someone's jokes, or have their eyes sparkle, or describe the family as all wearing jackets worn through at the elbows![]()
