In a about a month my family is going on vacation. My mom is coming to my house for the week to take care of all my little fur babies. My family is different from my husbands side of the family. When we first started talking about where we were going to go his parents self invited them to go with us. My husband has a very hard time saying no to anyone in his family and I love him for being a caring person. Though vacation was for us to get away from the family. Now that it is getting closer my mil has invited my niece and now she wants us to tell my sister in law they can only bring one extra person, which is not true.
My hubby and I have a 5 passenger truck, my in laws have a six passenger truck. I already know that if my niece and nephew comes we will have to take them with us when we decide to do other things. Which means more money we will have to take with us to cover the expense. We love our niece and nephew do not get us wrong but we were not expecting to have 2 additional kids to pay for. As with many people we are on a tight budget. I think next year we will keep our mouths shut and just disappear..

You are not gone yet so open up your mouth now! Why feeling annoyed about something you don't want. It will spoil your plans/vacation. Tell your husband to say no, if not you will and don't care what they think about you.
Also be clear you are short in money. Like you already stated most people are.
If is offered to pay the costs for your niece and nephew you can consider if you like to take them with you. Make a bill for what it will cost you and present it to them. Sorry but I think this is a normal way to do unless you are a very rich person and don't care.

the hubby does not want to upset his parents. So I am stuck with them for this year. Not worth fighting but he did promise m,e at least one day without being there. They do not like going on hikes so we will go to another state park to do the 13 miles worth of hiking. Though next year we are not telling anyone
