You have a brand new baby and EVERYONE wants you to come for the holidays. How do you decide what invites to accept and which to decline?

When our kids were small, we lived a day’s drive away from all our family members. Of course, I realize we were lucky that it was just a drive away instead of a plane ride, but still each visit was exhausting nonetheless.

It was not just the trip itself, but also all the visiting.

We never got a chance to see everyone when we came to town, so someone always felt left out-I’ll tell you a little secret, sometimes we snuck into town and just saw select people. I know it seems terrible but it was the only way to save our sanity and keep the kids from going on visit overload. Share your secret for successful holiday visits!
