[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I have a few guesses where your husband might be from, but still, this is just too much! Does he celebrate Xmas? Parents stay at your house, but everyone else must rent an airbnb. I mean, really! It is just too much. [/quote]

OP here- he’s Polynesian. They’re all Christians and celebrate Christmas.

I’ve contacted family friend and told her that her cousin can’t stay because it will be too crowded. She said she will look at air bnbs, don’t think she is too happy about it. It’s difficult because her cousin had already booked a flight to our city. I guess in this situation someone is going to end up being upset. [/quote]

Team OP. That is way too many people to host especially when OP has to care for a toddler. OP, I suggest you not be a martyr when it comes to food. Sit down with your husband and make a plan. Make one nice Christmas meal and do really simple meals or go out for the others.

We host family a lot at our house and our general rule is that breakfast and lunch are “on your own” and we plan out dinners (and for longer visits, different family members will “host” a dinner night at our house and cook). [/quote]
