[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perhaps she does not feel welcome because your DH is stressed with his job and you are stressed with too much preparation. Tell your DH to not invite them if he cannot commit to spending quality time with them.[/quote] NP-For most people who work full time and don't have endless money to throw at the problem, hosting IS stressful by default. I don't think it's fair to ask people to not be stressed. Maybe people should pitch in more if that's their criticism, or suggest an alternative, like maybe op and her dh staying at a hotel near in-laws and going for a fabulous meal out. But there is something a little infuriating about going to great lengths to host and then be told "oh, but why aren't you relaxed and chill about it?"[/quote]
