[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you go to the other side the weekend before/after/within the month or not at all if you are celebrating with one side. Trying to see if we will need to be doing 2 TGivings, 2 Xmases etc or just do one of each with each side and not try to plan an alternate date to celebrate. [/quote] Before kids we would do TG with one of the in-laws and Xmas with the other, then switch the next year. The glitch there was the one side was divorced and only one parent was remarried. Instead of splitting the time in half we'd do 3-4 hours at one house and then switch. it was a nightmare and the one parent who was alone would call if we were ten minutes late (no exaggeration). It felt more stressful than like joyful family time. After our kids got to be about 5 we still switched off for TG but stayed at home for Xmas. Our kids wanted Santa to come to our house. Extended family was and is welcome to come and stay with us for Xmas.[/quote]
