Well, I'm in a long term relationship but we don't have kids. We're both busy and stressed and live in a metro area, while our families live in small towns several hours away.
I had one dinner with one part of her family, and she had one dinner with my folks. She had about nine other obligations and instead of making the rounds I spent that time helping my mother put up a ceiling in the basement of her house. All I meant was that there wasn't a turkey, tree, gift, snowflake in sight. No cards or "Mery Christmas" wishes. Just one dinner with my partner and my folks, and a dinner with her mother's cousins. It was basically just a weekend in the country.
I don't know why I said several dinners. Must have been thinking of all the stuff my girlfriend did when I was doing manual labor for my mom and helping her fix her MacBook.
Truly magical.
