[quote=Anonymous]The passing of your grandparents is a good opportunity to re-evaluate and rework, especially if you like the tradition of a family reunion in theory but not in current practice. Talk about how now that the family dynamics have changed and there are more people, you want to keep the tradition of the family week, but change the house and timing to better accommodate current participants. Invite cousins to weigh in. Set up a survey. Create a document with links to potential houses. Be an advocate for your needs instead of suffering in silence and ruining everyone else’s trip at the same time. (Because I am certain there is some eye-rolling about how you and DH arrive, dump your kids on the other adults, and spend the week hiding in your room without helping/contributing to the daily rhythm of the house.)[/quote]
