[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could your mom or some other relative fly down, then ride up with you and the kids?  For me, I think the cost of the roundtrip ticket would be worth the extra help.  By the way, I wouldn't waste a thought about leaving your husband for Thanksgiving.  If it's okay with him and you, then who cares what other posters think?  (Personally, I would prefer the alone time over a crazy weekend with the M-I-L - who is lovely, but nutso around the holidays.)

Also, if you take the train, I would ship your luggage ahead (it's only about $35/bag via FedEx, I believe - we've done this a few times), and rent car seats once in Boston.[/quote]

These are the best suggestions yet. Amtrak's probably the best option. What's the issue with the bags, by the way? Why don't you have your DH drop you off, bags and all, and then meet you when you return? Your family can take care of the bags on your arrival in New England. If you're still uncomfortable with that, then you can have your mother fly down and then take Amtrak with you, she can help coordinate the bags and children.[/quote]
