Well we try to at least take 1 good vacation but this year just didn't seem to work out. Inlaws came down a few months back so Hubby took off some time then. Then we have Christmas coming up. Well Hubby has put in so much time this year he has a few extra days so we're heading to....you guessed... A NOTRE DAME GAME!!!!! He's super excited about it lol!!! 4951

It's in all honesty times like these that tick me off. We use up 2 weeks of my husbands vacation to "go home" for the holidays. I don't know about you guys but i definitely do not see that as any type of vacation lol 4951

@yankeejessica: I've limited my hubby to going home once a year or even every other year, his choice, Christmas or Thanksgiving. But he also gets to see his parents when he is working out in west texas so it's not like he only sees them once a year. Luckily my family is here so I don't have to use vacation to see them. Once I start back to work full time I highly doubt I will be taking anything more than a long weekend to go visit. I value my vacations too much!

@yankeejessica, I told you years ago, that the trips back home will soon stop.  The drive sucks, and for that drive, ya'll can take a killer cruise out of Galveston for the whole family, and not spend as much as going home!And you will get tired of not being in your home at Christmas.I know your whole family it there, but they can come and see you some too.  If they aren't willing to ever do that, your trips back home can get even more sparseEmoticonWe just refused to do this after we had kids.  Our parents and family could come see us, but we haven't been home at Christmas in 16 years.  Zero regrets on our part eitherEmoticonIf you want to take the kids for a week or 2 in the summer do that.  But save your dh's vacation days for fun times with ya'll.  
 
@Fallon:
 
And that is exactly it. No one really appreciates what we have to go through to come "home" so it is starting to get annoying. I don't mind being with hubbys parents as I love them more than my own haha! But the constant bickering that comes from my mom when we are home just ticks me off. 4951

True; unless they suck. If they suck, that's their choice, and there is no reason to waste valuable vacation time on them. 4951
