[quote=Anonymous]Just skip it. My ILs are having their (once in a lifetime) 50th anniversary party one week before my due date this summer...and since it involves a flight and long drive we are obviously not going. They invited my parents, and my mom thought it was really weird they didn't hold it a month or so earlier so that we could attend. My parents would have done that, because our attendance would've been way more important to them than holding it closer to the exact date of their anniversary. It isn't on the exact date, BTW, it's the Saturday after. And, yes, it was planned after we had already announced we were expecting. But every family is different. If your attendance was super important, your MIL would accommodate. It's just a small 4th of July BBQ, so I can understand why she would want to hold it on the 4th...but that doesn't also mean she can demand that you come.[/quote]
