My family and I is correct before a verb. (nominative case)

My family and me is correct after a verb or preposition. (objective case)

When deciding on whether to use "I" or "me" in a sentence, you take out the other person(s) and see what would be used. For example, if you were to say "My family and I went to dinner," you take out family and it would read "I went to dinner." "Me went to dinner" doesn't sound right. However, if you were to say "John wanted to go to dinner with my family and I," and take out family, you would be saying "John wanted to go to dinner with I." "I" does not fit here and is grammatically incorrect. The sentence should read "John wants to go to dinner with my family and me." You can do this with any personal pronoun such as we/us, he/him, she/her, or they/them.

"She and I went to town." = She went to town. OR I went to town.
