I've carried to every family gathering since getting my CCW, and have not once been questioned about it. Hell, I don't even know if anybody's noticed. I suppose if I ever got the "Why do you need to carry that?" line, I would probably say something along the lines, "God commanded me to arm myself in preparation for the apocalypse, where I will be called on to smite the unrepentant sinners." Typically I find that one ends conversation pretty quick.
