Serious question. Is this really what most of you do on the weekends?
Those weekends are few and far between now that we have kids and they always having some sport or party or something.
My grandparents passed away when I was really young, so it's always been important for me that my kids get as much time with their grandparents as possible and we try to make as many family events as we can. This doesn't really relate to topic at hand as there are no kids involved, yet.
As far as other poster goes, I think it's crazier to make a 12 hour rountrip visit to in-laws every month than to make it to holiday/family events.
In a vaccuum, visiting family for Mother's Day and a graduation event in a short period of time isn't so bad. But in this situation, I'd probably push for either Mother's Day or Memorial Day, but not both, or if doing both, skipping a month or 2 of the routine weekend visits.
Staying through a Sunday afternoon for church and lunch after with a 6 hour commute home looming sounds brutal.
