What are common social events for western families?

Weddings, birthdays, family reunions, holiday celebrations, funerals

This is a a paragraph from the actual networks book so I hope this answered you question "Western families often gathered together for social events. Men took part in sports such as wrestling. Women met for quilting and sewing parties. Both men and women took part in cornhuskings. These were gatherings where farm families shared the work of stripping the outer layers from corn. Life in the West did not have many of the conveniences of Eastern town life. The pioneers had not traveled to the West to live a pampered life. They wanted to make new lives for themselves and their families."Please don't report me!

The articles created a national government composed of a congress, which had the power to declare war, sign treaties, make alliances and more.
