[b]Why would this be awkward,[/b] OP? It was a reasonable assumption on their part, and it's also perfectly fine to say you want to go back to rotating the hosting.

Please don't manufacture drama out of thin air. There's already way too much of it in the world.[/quote]

Because they put op on the spot in front of everybody and said (not asked) op is hosting. Extremely rude![/quote]

PP you replied to. No. This is family that is close enough to vacation and spend holidays together, not some random acquaintance. I would expect that sort of direct talk, and not think it rude at all. If one of my BILs spoke to me like that in front of everyone, I would just say, "That was because there were health and house reno stuff going on, we didn't mean for it to become a regular thing. I'm done hosting for now". And I would not be disturbed in the least. My BILs wouldn't be either. We have that sort of relationship.

Ummm…no. We don’t care about YOUR relationship with whatever family YOU have. You don’t know how close OP family is. [b]Obviously if op was annoyed by the assumption that they would host then it was out of line for in-laws to say (not ask) if they are hosting.[/b][/quote]

We could also conclude that OP is hyper sensitive. It sounds like that's the case. She needs to relax around her in-laws and deal with them frankly, like they do with her. Nothing in what she described was rude. She felt put-upon, but it was not warranted.
