[quote=Anonymous]I had 3 siblings. We all lived within 45 minutes of our parents. We all celebrated Christmas with our own spouse and kids. On the Saturday after Christmas, we did a group gathering at either the parent's or my house. In the earlier years, we did presents for the nieces and nephews. After a bit, we had each person bring a $10 (then $20) gift and played dirty Santa. But it was nice having Christmas Day with just your own family, or if you wished, joining with the spouse's family. Part of this situation may be that the brother or SIL doesn't want to get into a major gift exchange with every niece and nephew. Try suggesting a food only get together sometime between Christmas and New Years for just food, fun and games. [/quote]
