My DF is 60 next year and I wanted to do something nice as a family to mark the occasion. Was thinking a big family holiday including my DSis and family and my 2 db and their families.
I kept mentioning that we needed to arrange something for this special birthday but nothing has been arranged yet. The other day my parents announce that DSis is going to Florida for a couple of weeks next year and has asked them to go too. They’re going. This is within a month of DF 60th! Me or DBs were not invited.

AIBU to feel a bit miffed about this?

parents and DSis won’t want to do another holiday so close to this one nor will they afford it.

Honestly I DO know a bit of what you are feeling. Don't hang about with party organising, get on it tonight, pick a date, get dad to agree the date, book the venue and then tell siblings. Sorry, it is a ghastly dance, you know what I mean, don't you Flowers

I get where you are coming from op. I think your parents have been quite hurtful here. Organise a party and go and do your own lovely holiday without them.
