When the leaves turn golden, the air gets crisper, and my in-laws start demanding to know who's spending which holiday where.
Christmas?
Thanksgiving?
The High Holy Days... oh wait, we're not Jewish.
Christmas?
Can you please just let me get through Halloween first?

Oh man - I feel your pain.
It's funny because I complaing about the exact opposite with my IL's. On Christmas Eve they still don't have plans for Christmas and then get ticked when we don't show on their demand.
I have already started campaigning to stay home again this year for Christmas. I figure if people want to see me, they can do the hard work and travel.
I don't even want to think about it...My inlaws always expect us to drive two hours in the snow, with two babies, for bad food:( Every year I just want to stay home.
its the same with me too. although we celebrate Eid-Ul-Fitr (the end of Ramadhan) and Chinese New Year.
my husband's family celebrate CNY even though they're Muslim.
we take turns to celebrate Eid Ul Fitr and CNY is usually spent at my in laws.
This year, we told both sets of parents in advance. my mom sulked, my dad seemed ok although he mentioned he'd miss us, HIS parents were estatic at the thought of having our daughter at their home for 5 days.
yes, 5 days. but i get along KINDA ok with them (read: the mother) so i'm alright.
hope you get through all those holidays... heheheh.
