I just made our reservation yesterday for Nov. I really wanted to go in Oct to see MNSSHP but I got vetoed by my crew. So this will be our 3rd xmas season trip (out of 3 trips). We are also downgrading from renting dvc points at AKL Jambo to staying at POR. I'm trying to get excited about this trip but am worried it won't be the trip I really want.
Anyway, I just had the idea of asking my sister if she and her family would like to join us. Both families have 3 boys and they are relatively close in age, just her youngest is a few years younger than mine. We don't live in the same city and they don't get to see each other often so I know the boys would be over the moon to 'run into' each other there.
The problem is, as much as I enjoy my sister's company. We have very different parenting styles. She's very lenient and I'm rather strict. I don't know if that would bother me so much that it might ruin it for me. I'm also worried that she'd see me as a babysitter and I'd be stuck with more than just my kids for a day. Lastly, my guys are thrill seekers and hers scare very easily. I don't even know of they'd go on the same rides. It would be great for dinner reservations and pool or Waterpark days but I'm not sure what else.
Sorry this is so long-winded. For those who have travelled with siblings and their families, did you enjoy it or regret it?
