Answer: At this point in our family, we have a Christmas schedule every other year with the married kids in-laws. So for 2012, Christmas is our 'off' year, meaning we will have our Christmas Eve dinner and program, but Christmas Day they will spend with their in-laws families. Shaun will be in law school and we don't know what his holiday break will be yet.
So, I would say it will be here in California at home, and then go to the cabin the day after for a week and ring in the New Year.
We spent Christmas 2 years ago in Utah and it was a lot of fun. We wanted to do that again last year, but Meredith and Natalie were pregnant and Meredith was at the end of her pregnancy and the doctor didn't want her to travel. Maybe 2013? It will depend on who is having babies again and can travel probably.
