[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]70 is a milestone birthday? Since when?[/b]

Anyway take your kids to your MILs house for get bday. Have the kids help you make her a cake while you are there.

Problem solved - no one is coming to your house, no party to plan [/quote]

What do you consider a milestone birthday if 70 isn't one?[/quote]

70 is pretty young.

90, 05, 100  - I could see those as "milestone" birthdays

Are you like 25??  My parents aren't even 70 yet and someone they know passes away  every other month.   Why is it such a burden for people to celebrate the people they love?? Or in this case, that the people they love love.

Plus, these types of family events are the stuff that will make up the OP's children's main childhood memories. I think of all of the gatherings of my relatives in the last 30 years as "when we were at X's house for Grandma's 80th, when we went to Y's house for cousin's graduation, the party for so and so's big anniversary" and so forth.
