[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I would do is skip the whole thing and send MIL an email saying "Thank you so much for inviting us, but this year we've decided to enjoy our entire vacation at our beach house." If she contacted me and was all "But why?" I'd say "Well although we appreciate your accommodations, the reality is that five of us in one bedroom simply isn't relaxing and X number of people in one house isn't relaxing to us either. We've decided this year we'll have a relaxing vacation!" And then I'd let the shit fall where it may. So what if she's angry? As long as I conduct myself politely and know I'm being a good person, I don't care what others think of me. [/quote] Talk about this with DH, but I think this is pretty much right. Just don't go altogether. You have another place and not enough time to go enjoy it with dealing with this crap...nope. You can see the ILs at other times, but your precious summer vacation will no longer be one of them.[/quote]
