My immediate family is 23 people, plus I have an Aunt lives close and has 3 kids who are married and have kids...so family get together's are loud, hectic and mostly about the food. (and wine.)
My husband's family is comprised on one cousin, her husband, one sister and her husband and his parents. We are the noise group, with our three boys. I use to glare at them across the table. I've given up now.
It is so much easier and fun to get together with friends. Or the kid's friends.
I'm sure you will miss your son. Three years is a very long time. Maybe you can go visit? Babble road trip to Japan? Think of the shopping we could do in Hong Kong...
Take some time to rest. I always appreciate how clean my house is after something like that. Makes it worth the effort.
