I'm double posting tonight...two things happening around one event.
The one here...
My husband and in-laws think I don't want them to stay at our house Christmas Eve b/c I was shocked when I found out they were (hubby didn't tell me) and I had invited my parents b/c we aren't doing Christmas w/ them this year (we alternate years) and I wanted them to experience Santa with the kids.
Well, according to my husband - who is INCREDIBLY angry with me and it may end my marriage - my in-laws, esp. my FIL are so angry (and he never gets mad). And I've effectively been uninvited to Christmas w/ his family. I want to call his parents and explain the miscommunciation that happened on a grand scale - specifically that my husband didn't tell them what we'd come up with for sleeping arrangements like I thought he was going to and therefore they just said forget it. Husband says don't call that nothing I say is going to change their minds...but I just have a hard time letting this go. I love his parents - while I have issues with MIL - and they are the best grandparents, but I feel like I'm being thrown under the bus.
Any advice? Should I let it go? If not, what do I say? I have to say that I'M HURT that no one is giving me the benefit of the doubt after knowing me for 12 years.
