Soooo our family is difficult! And we've decided to escape! Our original plan was to go during the week of Dec 5th because thats my birthday (and Walts!) buuutt coronado was booked and so Christmas week was available *shrugs shoulders*
I have most of my family handled and my mom will be dissapointed, but deal with it.... my in laws not so much.... my husband and i have been together 16 years, married for 7, have no kids and are both in our 30s... christmas eve dinner is always just us, his brother and his fiance and his parents....
Anyone have any ideas on how to tell them??? we just booked our dining plans and are so excited, but are dreading when to tell them or how?? I was thinking of maybe even sending some sort of card to all our immediate family with a cute poem to say how we'll miss them but skype from the castle on christmas day?!?!! and to join us for dinner at our house on a day after we return.. but not exactly sure how to say it or if anyone has seen something similar done before...
usually we have hosted christmas day since 2012, the year my husband got 2 rare diseases, but its like his parents don't come until right before dinner and barely stay after dessert and they live a mile up the road :| and then its just my uncle/aunt/nephew/mom brother and his kids....
any suggestions are much appreciated!
PS. Also, got these adorable snowflake doggy mickey ears online and can't wait to do the family christmas card with us and the dogs later this fall!
