[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My brother and SIL will be hosting TG this year.  They have 2 kids under 4 and a pet dog.  It's a very busy small house.  The plan was for the immediate family to stay at their house.  I was talking with my sister and we decided to stay in a hotel so we can get some restful sleep.  Neither of us are keen on sleeping on air mattresses where ever they can stick us.  In fact I thought they would be relieved there would be 2 less people in their house at night.  The hotel we picked is within a mile of their house and we will have a car rental.  No one will be put out having to give us rides to/from the hotel.  I received this reply email from my SIL:

[quote]That is so typical of you and XXXXX.  Enjoy your hotel stay.[/quote]

I am not even sure how to respond.  Should I?  I don't want there to be tension.  I think she was out of line with this email.[/quote]

Staying in a hotel is fine.  1 mile away is great, rental car is great, ability to be there as early or late as everyone wants is great. 
Sounds great.

Of course, if they are Asian or European they will be highly offending you don't want to squeeze in the house and get the full family family family effect. BFD and highly overrated.

Sorry your brother or your SIL gave you a snide remark.  Bring a house gift and make sure you let them know if is nothing to do with their house or kids or dog, just say you wanted to go easy on them and are happy to be over as early as late as possible! Looking fw to it guys!  xxoo. [/quote]
