Yep, XH and I are like that alot too. I'm happy, he seems to try to be even more unhappy, when I'm not to up, he seems to try to be extra happy. Or maybe he's not trying, maybe he really is. Or maybe I'm just extra sensitive?
As for the family visit, use DB on them. My sister has horrible mood swings and we normally can't spend more than a few hours together before she goes off the deepend. Last time we got together and she started getting moody, I said, why not and used my DB lessons on her. With in 15 minutes her mood pasted and we ended up having a great day together. Good luck with yours!
