Dh and I always spend Xmas with his parents. Every year. They are nice and everything, but FIL gets grumpier every year and MIL gets more deaf, and there's not as many laughs to be had as I'd like.
We have 2 DC who will be 5 and 1 at Xmas, so the older one is really getting into it now.
Dh and I would love to have Xmas at home, just the 4 of us, so we can have our own traditions and make some less grumpy Christmas memories, but how did we tell PILs without hurting their feelings?
They have another son, but he's very unreliable and might pop in to theirs for half an hour on Xmas day, maybe.
They don't live close either, 2 hours away. So it's not as if we can just pop by in the afternoon or something, we have to stay really.
