[quote=Anonymous]I love our big family vacation. It's crazy, but the purpose is to have it be kind of crazy so you can spend time with people you otherwise would not. We divide dinners out--2 per family. Lunch and breakfast on our own. Set your expectations low for cleanliness and organization. If you want things cleaner or more organized then certainly don't be the martyr. But offer to help clean up so the group can stay ahead of the dishes. Enjoy the adult company and let the kid mob-mentality rule. I normally try to get away by myself for 45 minutes in the afternoon and then my husband and I sneak off once the kids are in bed. Seriously, this is my family's favorite week of the year. But we generally like each other and rarely fight about important matters. [/quote]
