Traveling for Thanksgiving

Every year my parents, my in-laws and my family all go away for the holiday. We find a place that suits us all and is definitely in our budget. We split the cost of the food and the cost of the house. This year we are heading to Virginia. The house is costing us a total of $600 dollars for an entire week. So that is $200 per family and the cost of the meals that family volunteers to make. I think that is a great bargain for a vaction and holiday all in one. Also you are only using 3 days vacation for an entire week off. We get to spend time with our families but also get to exlore new places. We do have our alone time with our own families and it gives us another option for christmas shopping.

To me this holiday/vacation time is priceless.

This is great!

There's no way I could spend that much time with my family and in-laws without bloodshed. It's nice to read that some families actually enjoy each other's company.
