Singular or plural?

I thought that 'family' implied plural for the answer - where did I go wrong  please? Extract below:Pour Thanksgiving, ma famille ________ un délicieux repas.For Thanksgiving, my family used to share a delicious meal.HINT: Conjugate 'partager' (to share) in l'Imparfaitpartageaitpartageaient

Hi Marie, 

You use the singular with the noun famille , so it would be -

"...ma famille partageait un délicieux repas."
