I would take the gifts back. Go to the movies on Christmas day and not think a minute more about it. It seems like now adays, families are so busy.
I truly wish my family was not coming on christmas. I am going to be so busy on Christmas week and then my brother shows up. Sleeps on the couch most of the afternoon (at least it seems like it) and then goes home. It drives me crazy. My husband and brother say about two words to each other since my husband doesn't think my brother is a very motivated person in life. I feel caught in the middle. I just wish it could be me , hubby and kids. Plus... I have to pack because the next day we are headed out of state to see the inlaws. Now.... my husband is so bored at his parents house. He just watches the history channel or goes shopping. I am there visiting which I do enjoy. I have a great MIL. We hurry back home on New Years eve where it will take me two days to catch up on laundry. I wish I could veto Christmas. Like it never happened.
