[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did combined. Don't mind the combined holidays, but it gets tricky when everyone starts inviting "just one more." If you can keep crowd control down, a simple combined family holiday can work pretty well.[/quote] This. We do combined Thanksgiving and combined Christmas Day (in the afternoon after presents have been opened). We've had to keep crowd control down but within reason. Thanksgiving started as just DH, me, my parents and brother, DH's parents. SIL spent Thanksgiving with fiance's family and her son if she had him that year. Now, Thanksgiving is DH, me, DS, my parents and brother, his boyfriend for dessert, SIL, BIL, nephew if he's there for that holiday, and SIL's in laws. At Christmas, replace SIL's in laws for DH's uncle and aunt and FIL's cousin and wife. We've put our foot down at this point. [/quote]
