So the hubs finally gets it in motion to make good on his promise to take the twincesses to Disneyland for their birthday. It is going to be fabulous! The 5 of us in our first family vacation without having to be "somewhere" type of vacation. Flying high on cloud 9!!! Yay
Then it happened! His smurfing mother has decided that her and FIL will be joining us. WTF!?!?! Our vacation "B"! My precious moments to share with my kids. NOT yours to invite yourself on. Hubby is partially to blame. He didn't stop the self invitation in October when it first came around. When the monster in law asked my
Mom if her and my dad were going my mom said "No. It is their family vacation. They should get to experience these things with their kids without interference. We had our moments with them growing up. Their turn." Clearly the monster in law didn't get the fricken hint. For Christ sakes, we are over 30!!!! We don't need a fricken babysitter.

I would tell DH to tell them they can't. It's your family vacation. You should be able to have fun with DH an the kids and not have to worry about othersa.

Considering the monster in law is psycho, yes. Then she would pretend it didn't happen and show up anyway. I can't fricking believe it. She wasn't invited in the first place and he didn't say "great we look forward to it" he said "oh you are?" And she kept rambling.

I would tell them sorry it's our family vacation. Do it soon before they buy tickets.

What if you and hubs tried uninviting them but doing it in a way they might be pacified? Something like " I know you both want to spend some time with the kids, this vacation is just for us but we would love to plan a visit all about their grandma and grandpa later this summer. I know you want to go and maybe next time we can plan a bigger vacation with both grandparents.". Would they flip out and be pissed at you if you did something like that?

DH needs to stand up and do something about it. Mil is trying to butt in and act like its her family to run. If she goes with you she will probably tell you where to go which rides to get on and how to control your children. i hate psychos like that

I would be so smurfing irked. Absolutely wouldn't be tolerating a self invitation. Tell DH to man up!

Awh. I remember your post about this trip interfering with birch's birthday and I was so happy for you to hear that the trip was set in motion!
DH needs to uninvite her and deal with the backlash. Y'all aren't being the bad guys by wanting family time.
