SIL is always ridiculous

When SIL invited herself we were perfectly fine with it. FIL is pretty crushed that she would rather stay home and make her hubby a sammich than spend this time with him. She's going to be pretty crushed when the photographer posts the family pictures but she chose not to go.

Well I'm glad you still went along with your plans because it sounds like it was inportant to you and DH and SIL will just have to deal. Glad you stood your ground!

Well update time. SIL ended up going. Her husband too. I imagine you see where this is headed. MIL called in sick. MIL, FIL, SIL and SIL's DH left out early without letting us know. They called after they were almost there to get directions. So we shrugged it off and headed that way and when we got there they left because SIL's DH had to leave for work.

We hired a photographer so we went ahead and got pictures of our nuclear family. Since they went on the day trip we invited them on without us. Then SIL took to Facebook and posted a bunch if pictures with the caption "I'm so glad we got to spend this time with my Dad while we still have the chance".

I know the event has already passed, but my response would be, we're leaving at noon and don't know when we'll be back. You are welcome to join us if you want, but we won't be returning early. If you need, here is a place near you that delivers carryout for you husband's dinner. Their number is 867-5309.

I stooped. I commented and said "so glad you guys had fun on our trip" but she deleted my comment.

We said something. MIL said when FIL gets better we can all go back. He may not get better and that's very likely. Trying to just shrug it off but I was shocked. I can't control other people and if I allow it to turn into a battle we will miss out on time with FIL.

Yes, they did know. They also knew we spent a fortune on food for a little lunch we planned.

OP, I am so sorry. I hope you are able to go on a day trip with FIL and MIL soon.

You are right in that no purpose will be served by arguing with your SIL. She's the kind that never gets it.

Hang in there.
