We have a fun holiday season. We do the week of thanksgiving at the in laws. They live 10 hours away, so this is usually the only time of year I go.
We do Christmas morning at our own house. And head to my parents that afternoon and stay the night.
My side is large, so long ago we opted to have a Christmas party on a date that all kids and in-laws can make it, so we usually have the Christmas party the week before, although this year we're doing it on the 26th.
Over the past few years we've been having a second thanksgiving also.
Both the rib and I get along well with our families do it works well. Always my favorite time of year.
