[quote=Anonymous]I am a MIL and a DIL.  I'm guessing there is way more to this story.  If my DIL sent me an e-vite for Thanksgiving it would be so weird that I would honestly assume her email had been hacked and it was spam.  I talk to my son and my DIL about once a week.  Often more often.  If she were making plans for Thanksgiving, I would know.  This year we are all going over to my parents' house.  They are eating with us at 2pm then heading over to her grandparents' house for dessert.  I know all this because I have a good relationship with my son and his wife.  It sounds like you don't have that.  And if the two of you are not close, I think you should be happy you were invited.

You can tell your friends that you already have plans.  You could still host and just work around your DIL's timetable - plan your meal for a different time on Thursday or better still, do yours on Friday.  Or you can decline you DIL's invitation.  However, if you care about the relationship beteeen you and your son and DIL, declining is a really bad decision.[/quote]
