I'd hate to cancel and get to Feb and not go if we continue to progress because that would hurt kids and I honestly think it would be fun for everyone. Right now I'm leaning towards paying it on Monday whether she brings it up or not and I won't mention it if she doesn't say anything. Thoughts?
I say continue to avoid R talks, pay the balance and plan on having a fun time as a family. It sounds like your gut is telling you the same thing. Next time the kids bring it up, instead of just smiling tell them you're really looking foward to it also, and join them in their excitement.
You have something positive for everyone to look forward to, use it to your advantage!
