[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 639325, member: 14557"] We tend to have big, loud and rambunctious family holidays. We live in old family home, so we usually host the most important ones, like Christmas. I do not like the cleaning part, but I guess I would need to clean thoroughly once a year anyway (and now difficult child did most of it for me during his sick leave, which it good, we have very high rooms, it really helps to be almost six and half feet tall when you have to clean here.) And other than that, it is just a cleaning I would do every week anyway. I like to cook and our traditional dishes are very cooking friendly in the way that you don't actually have to make most of them at the day you will serve them and you can split the preparation for several days. And I also have help. We gather to cook beforehand and others also bring dishes or baking. The house is big, so there isn't much to do in trying to fit everyone in. Busy but fun and I like it. Of course mother in law likes to create drama, but one gets used to that too. [/QUOTE]
