Hi all! With holiday time around the corner I was just wondering how you all balance spending time on the holidays with your family and your SO's family? Do you spend Christmas with your family and Thanksgiving with your SO's family? Do you visit BOTH families on the same day? Do you think what you currently do will change after you're married? I am just curious because I always have been guilted into doing the "Holiday Shuffle" as I call it - Going to three different family gatherings on every holiday (my parents, my grandparents, and his parents). It's so so tiring. Now that we're married I'm thinking we need to start trading off where we go on each holiday, some with his family some with mine. What do you guys do?
