We changed our family Christmas to the weekend early because the kids spent the 24th and 25th running all over and couldn't have time at home with their own kids. Sounds great right? All that meant was that the in-laws now get both days and we are at home alone. I've tried unsuccessfully to get DH to make another tradition for us, but I guess he keeps hoping the kids will invite us etc. Hasn't happened in five years so I doubt it does.
