Prepared to admit iabu. Dh wants to get season ticket to see his football team ( an hour away) . Just home games, but roughly every other weekend. I'm unhappy as I enjoy us spending Saturday afternoon's together as a family, going for walks, going swimming, teaching kids how to ride their bikes etc.

he wants to get season tickets for possibly all of us, but dc are quite little, so they also have birthday parties, play dates etc. I also think dc are too little to decide they want to commit to every other weekend ( they are 3).

Or I being a cow?

YABU assuming he has made suitable child care arrangements in advance. If he hasn't, and just expects you to pick up the slack, then YANBU

How about partial season tickets? DH and DS have gone for one this year because we're cutting back on spending and that was the compromise. Tell him to hold off tickets for the DC's for a couple of years unless he wants to be wresting with bored cold children half way through a snowed under match in mid January... DH vowed to wait until DD was a teenager before he took her again after that particular episode!
