[quote=Anonymous]Who are all the people that you host? I would feel some responsibility for getting together with the grandparents, but not for the rest. Let people know EARLY that these get togethers are overwhelming (really too much work) for your family/kids and your need for a calmer and quieter holiday. I would not get involved asking about choosing names for gift giving. Instead, state you are removing yourselves from adult gift giving and remind them not to buy anything for you. Finally, get your DH involved in this communication with the extended family. [/quote]
