"mainly my family and things i encounter when we are on a trip"

I recommend M50 Mk. II or M6 II plus EF-M 18-150. Possibly add 32/1.4 or Sigma 56/1.4.

Long version:

Although RP is fairly low priced (in the U$A, but not in € EURO), EOS R system will always be significantly larger and significantly more expensive going forward. Especially lenses.

For mainly family pictures I'd go for smaller size and best possible eye/tracking AF so either
* M50 Mk. II (not M50 ! because it has no eye-AF tracking in Servo-AF mode) - max. bang for the buck, especially if a built-in viewfinder is valued

* M6 II - newer, better sensor and somewhat more functional capability and a smaller form factor - but no EVF and much higher price

I pondered the same decision for a long time. Finally decided on M6 II because of "best IQ and functionality in smallest package". I took body only, if I really absolutely need EVF, I can add it later without any price penalty. EF-M 15-45 I cannot recommend, too many really weak copies around.

My go to lens is EF-M 18-150. Very happy with it. Also own and use 11-22, 22/2 and EF-S 55-250 STM. Will skip 32/1.4, but rather add Sigma 56/1.4 as portrait tele some day, unless Canon launches a great longer EF-M prime. For the time being i use EF 50/1.8 STM with adapter as portrait / low light lens.
