Christmas

Why is it a blooming nightmare to make everyone happy? Dp and I want a quiet Christmas day with dd in our new house. We've made that crystal. We need to get round my parents who are local, his parents and grandparents who are 4 hours away and my sister an hour away (she's just had a baby so I'll def go to her not ask her to make the trip). Ordinarily, my sister, parents and I would all have Xmas eve or boxing day together but family domestics have got in the way of that. Roll on January!

You dont NEED to. You're an adult who can make your own choices. If you want to stop at home, do just that.

What's happened? Can it be resolved? Do you ever spend Christmas with your ILs? Have you ever spent Christmas just with your husband?

My parents hate my BIL, years of issues there, so my sister just consciously keeps them apart now.

It's actually my first Christmas with dp, only been together 11 months so we definitely just want to be us with my dd on Christmas day.

Think we'll be on a schedule something like this: 23rd with my sister, 24th my parents, 25th at home, 26th his parents, 27th his grandparents, 28th home to sleep for a week Grin
