RPP: Best Year Ever (18)

[bdub]

I am coming from a position where I don't get along with the in-laws at all. A big part of that is because ew vented to her mom about everything, constantly. Over the years the resentment built up and MIL had heard so much bad that things just fell apart.

I also need to say I should have read your post a little better. I read it and jumped right to the conclusion that it was only a vacation, no big deal. However, I will stand by what I said before. Either go another week, or start a whole new tradition. I hope your inlaws accept you and you can go at a different time. The children will get a double dose of the fun times that way.

If it is has you in that much of a funk, maybe try to take some of the finality out of it. After all, no one knows what will happen at the end of this 6 month period. 2016 is another year!
