[quote=Anonymous]Family dynamics change. trying to organize a multigenerational gathering across country during a specific vacation time is a daunting task. Agree with PP that you need to state very soon that this just won't work out for your family. Get your DH involved and make him communicate this. I'm local, with local ILs, parents and siblings and have been married a bit longer than you, OP. I know how tough it is to navigate Thanksgiving! Insane how "traditions" start and then turn into an increasingly elaborate productions with every year. Stop the insanity. We stopped going en masse to the beach because annually, another expectation was raised and it got to be too much. I think your SIL will be relieved. If she's like I am, she just wants a vacation, NOT a reunion. [/quote]
