[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My life rule is the person making the drama or making the conflict is the one that gets the short end of the stick.  If person x says "I won't share my day with person y" then person x doesn't get their day celebrated.  You can't share, you get nothing.[/quote]

Usually this rule is used on children under the age of 10. In this case, apply it to your 37 yo sister who is also having a gender reveal party. [/quote]

OP's wife is the one having the gender reveal party.  Both families are traveling to town for OP's wife's gender reveal party and each family would like to celebrate a birthday that same weekend.  OP's sister is being a little lame but so what.  She is probably feeling like if she has to come to town for a silly gender reveal party on her birthday weekend, she would at least like to have the birthday celebration she would like without this other family that are basically strangers to her with the only connection being her brother marries the other birthday girl's daughter.  Considering the distance between the families, they have probably all only met a couple times at most.

Bringing two separate cakes two separate restaurants should make everyone happy.  We've brought cakes t0 restaurants plenty of times.  At most, restaurant may charge you a cake cutting fee or something silly like that, but they are always happy to oblige.  Just call ahead on that.  [/quote]
