But once we got married we went to festivities as a unit (not 1 going to 1 event, while the other goes to another). We haven't lived near our parents since we got married, so our usual deal is to stay at home for Thanksgiving (and invite anyone who wants to come) and then go to our parents' for Xmas. They only live 45 minutes apart, but it's still hard to go back and forth. Last year we decided we were going to SLEEP at one house the whole trip, which helped us feel less stressed. Our families are very accommodating (rearranging events so we can come), so that helps. This year we have a baby (!), so we're going to take it even easier!Kate Lnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1989590509648610688.post-59610143139817381192009-12-04T19:45:51.732-06:002009-12-04T19:45:51.732-06:00We will be hosting my parents at our house for Chr...We will be hosting my parents at our house for Christmas... not so much because I staked a wanted claim, but because Tanner is on call, and can't leave. I would have liked a little extra time to get in the hang of things here. Now I'm in a mad rush to buy a dining room table before we end up having 6 people sitting on the floor!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05407825751018840480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1989590509648610688.post-713654169123645352009-12-04T17:31:56.726-06:002009-12-04T17:31:56.726-06:00We have it pretty good.

Megan's family always celebrates on the day of (until I stole their youngest, they always had 3 single daughters that never missed) and my family would celebrate Thanksgiving in January if that's when we could come. The nice thing about holidays, birthdays, etc. is it makes you schedule visits. Megan staked out Easter as our annual hosting day - you should stake your claim to one and make the Sullivans and Haynes do the travelling!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05470505739031196514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1989590509648610688.post-89037904210582273572009-11-29T10:04:32.482-06:002009-11-29T10:04:32.482-06:00Calling your sister a "dust bunny" and y...Calling your sister a "dust bunny" and your parents "Labradors" huh? Interesting metaphors...I like. I will definitely try to the spinach casserole soon. I did miss the sweet potato casserole and beautiful pumpkin pie you made last year. I hope they make a comeback one day.<br />HessengirlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
