How about arranging a visit with your family for, say New Year? Or maybe ask your family to have Christmas morning breakfast or lunch with you and your husband's family? I know how you feel. I've been away from my family for 2 years now. I've just moved in with my fiancee 3 months ago and I'm afraid we won't be able to go and visit my family in the Philippines for Christmas. :( But I'm looking forward to being with them next year with my future husband and bond with them so my fiancee can meet them all in person. :)

Just enjoy the holidays. If you keep thinking of going home you won't enjoy it with your in-laws. Maybe they're fun people too just like your family, right? You never know.
