I finally broke down this past Christmas and told my mom & siblings that we (my wife & kids) would not be seeing them during the holiday season (first time in 30 years). It's a long story that I won't get into here but I can say it was the most stress free Christmas I've ever had.


We did the same thing this year -- first time in 22 years of marriage. I won't say the whole holiday season was stress free -- after all, we have a 17-year-old in the house -- but it was great to not travel.
