I can't believe my SIL (long)
I can't believe my family sometimes. I was talking to my sister-in-law (brother's wife of 15 years). They live 7 hours drive away and have never visited us in 2.5 years that we've lived in NYC. That's ok, they have kids and we go up to visit my family every few months.
So, my sister in law tells me they're thinking of visiting. That's great!
But, then she says 'Are you coming home for Thanksgiving?'. I say no so she says 'I think we'll come down there then'. I was a little taken back, and didn't know what to say. She says 'what were your plans' and I said that we'd planned to go to DH's parents for Thanksgiving dinner.
Her response? 'They won't mind if we come!'.
They JUST met his parents at our wedding. That's the only time they've met. Granted, it was a weekend wedding so we all spent some time together, but not enough for them to be inviting themselves over to their Thanksgiving dinner.
Plus, they have 2 children, so that's four people they want me to invite to my mother-in-law's house.
Ummm...I don't think so. I told them that if they come we can either go out to dinner or I'll make dinner, but I'm not inviting them to someone else's house.
How rude! I can't believe people.
