Christmas with the in-laws! Wonder how that’s gonna go?
So, on Monday Mary gets a call from her Aunt telling her that they are in the area. She was wanting to know if it would be okay for them to come visit on Christmas day. So, Mary’s like - sure - absolutely! So, her aunt and uncle will be coming. Then during the course of that conversation, the aunt lets her know that one of her other uncles would be flying in to see them, so, she was wondering if it would be okay if he came along as well - Sure - absolutely!
So - Mary calls her mom to let her know about this news. So, her mom finds out that her sister and her brother are going to be down here - so - apparently, after she gets off the phone with Mary - she talks it over with Mary’s dad - and she calls Mary back to let her know that they’re coming down now too!
Only AFTER she learns that we will be having 5 additional guests did she call me to let me know the story. It’s not like I was going to say “no” or anything. Her family is always welcome in our home - but - this is the first time any of her family has ever celebrated Christmas with us. I’m sure it will be fine. We’re used to a house full of people…what’s 5 more, right?
On the up side, if it doesn’t go well it will give you a good blogging story!
Hope your family has a very Merry Christmas!!!
Hi Toni - that is so very true! Let’s hope I have a blogging story either way. I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas as well.
