As we approach another big holiday, I find myself yet again playing host to my husband's family. We seem to spend just about every holiday with either his mom or dad and while my side has never been big into the holidays, I would occasionally just like a break from in-laws and to spend the day with my family. How is everyone else doing it?

The only time we've ever hosted a holiday at our house was this Christmas when I was 39w and couldn't travel. But we're military and this is the closest we've lived to family in the 8yrs we've been married.
This Easter will be at my parent's house. We won't see ILs, but we'll be visiting them in mid-May so it ultimately will even out.
Prior to ThanksgivingGate 2013, we primarily spent holidays with his families. Post ThankgivingGate2013, we will be doing e/o year.

We are very lucky that our families live about 15 min away from each other. We are able to visit both sides for each holiday.
We usually spend more time with my side because whenever we spend the night we're at my parents or our family lake home.
