My parents in the morning and IL's later....DH prefers my mom's cooking so we usually hang out at my parents long and go to his parents late enough that we don't have to eat there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680730 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 16:56:01 +0000 travelgirl1 680730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We would if we lived in the same country! The thought of hosting a big dinner makes me go cold: all that prep/cooking/people to seat/washing up/cleaning - how do people do it??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680600 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 14:25:08 +0000 anonysquire 680600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680591 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 14:16:47 +0000 .twist. 680591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We definitely do!!

DH is out of town this year but the rest of us are here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680458 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 12:19:53 +0000 delight 680458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Glad to see I'm not the only one still mooching off my parents' cooking :) We will be doing Mother's Day this year, cause we can't really make our mom's cook then can we? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680448 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 11:54:13 +0000 heffalump 680448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm Jewish, but holiday meals are at our parents. Dh and I discussed it and decided I'm not going to offer to host until my lo and hopefully future los are older so cooking with a baby isn't such a hassle. Plus both of our families live here so that would be a lot of people to have in our tiny house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680410 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 11:15:30 +0000 BSB 680410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We haven't been home for Easter in a long time. We usually go over to my older sisters house or the DH's mom's house. But now that my parents' house has been renovated and my other sister bought a house. I'm not sure where my family eats on Easter.</p> <p>I probably won't be in the running to host until we buy a house. Maybe in the next two years when we move closer to home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680358 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 10:02:27 +0000 Caly 680358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We switch off. We always get together for all holidays &amp; sometimes it's at my parents &amp; sometimes it's at our house. The first couple times hosting was a lil weird since it was such a role reversal, but now I've gotten used to it.<br /> Tonight, we're going to my parents for Easter : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680349 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 09:50:31 +0000 sslm 680349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are going to my in laws tonight! And if we were near my parents we'd go there too. We have hosted before though, because I love to cook! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680342 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 09:21:44 +0000 Reese 680342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went to my parents house yesterday for dinner and I will go to the ILs today for dinner. </p> <p>With my side of the family we take turns and I have hosted a few holidays. When it is at our house we will all cook and serve together so it isn't overwhelming at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680341 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 09:17:28 +0000 Smurfette 680341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do! My parents have the whole family over. We always go someplace for every holiday. My family always gets together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680338 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 09:15:04 +0000 Dandelion 680338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep...went to inlaws last night and my parents house is later today. As long as they're willing to host, I'll go along with it. I don't mind hosting, but both houses are like a hub for both our families. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680334 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 09:06:35 +0000 blackbird 680334@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH is almost 30 and his mom, aunts, and grandma all argue over who wants to host! The 'kids' have never hosted! They all chomp at the bit to!! It will be a very long time until we host. I have no desire to have 20+ people In my home. Nor do I have the seating, even though our home is the second largest in the family! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680248 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 06:59:02 +0000 rachiecakes 680248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do! Family comes from all over for Easter at my parents'. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680244 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 06:56:40 +0000 Charm54 680244@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me me me! My moms house is so much bigger and can host out huge family better. Plus she's such a good cook :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-still-goes-to-their-parents-for-easter-dinner#post-680234 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 06:47:37 +0000 delight 680234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Now that I've hit my 30's, am I supposed to be hosting? It's just so convenient going over to our parents for dinner! I know at some point roles will reverse and I will start cooking the fancy dinners at our house.</p> <p>Where is your Easter dinner or when did you start hosting your big family gatherings? </p>
