[quote=Anonymous]Maybe this changes depending on if you are from here or not. I think a lot of people in this area are transplants like us, so we don't have anyone to entertain. We don't know anyone aside from coworkers (who we aren't hanging out with) and parents of other kids in our kid's grade (which is very superficially). My husband and I grew up in the same city, both families are also from there. If we were still "back home" I can imagine wanting to host more often. We are both only children of divorced parents so if we still lived back home, there is no chance in hell we would drive 80 miles around the city to see all the grandparents on holidays...they'd be driving to us. Our childhood and college friends are still there as well, all of whom have multiple kids now. When we do make it back to visit, we gather at the friends' with the big house. All that entertaining space is nice with a busload of offspring running around. However, back home, real estate is cheap. Not the case here. I don't want to pay big bucks to have rooms in my house that I never step foot in. I'm just trying to come up with the least tacky way to turn the formal dinning room into an office...[/quote]
