Totally agree. Lost my father in 2017 and mother-in-law in 2020. Both were incredible people.
However, I totally get Vash's point. This past Easter my brother-in-law somehow invited his in-laws to my house for dinner. He's fairly recently married and his wife is a strange bird. Ditto her parents.
During dinner it comes out that the 4 of them had had their Easter dinner the day before together. Didn't stop them all from trying to get leftovers to take home. And of course they came empty handed.
I'm hoping we don't have a repeat of this BS on Thanksgiving or Christmas.
We've returned home after 20 years of living where the Army told me. So my wife likes to or feels compelled to host the holiday dinners. I'm thinking we need to move away again...
