Separate Thanksgivings? 🦃

Question

Me and my husbands families live about an hour away from each other. Would it be horrible of us to go to separate Thanksgivings partially? If we start off by going to his first (they eat at 12) and then leave to go to mine around 3 (we eat at 2), I feel like we will either be rushed at his and we  will be late and completely miss eating with my family at mine. 
My proposition - we start off by going our separate ways and then my husband joins me at my families house around 4 when his families is over. (I don’t really care to go to his because the food is soooo bad and all he really wants to do is play sports outside with his cousins afterwards anyway). Plus I’m pregnant so shuffling around all day is not ideal for me at this point.
Judge me? Good idea? Bad idea? Help us make a decision 😩

Answer

We're doing separate this year, Normally we go to my families house (grandmas) and then his (aunts), but this year my grandma is going elsewhere so I'm cooking for my mom and siblings (I have 6 younger siblings) while he's still doing his aunts. Going forward since I'm pregnant, we will be alternating holidays.

Answer

We rotate holidays each year, but I don’t see anything wrong with y’all going separately.

Answer

We are going to his parents and my grandparents this year but they are only about 30 minutes from each other. I had suggested splitting up but he doesn’t think it’s right. I guess it’s all personal preference.

Answer

I worked today and am working the day after thanksgiving, my in laws are 31/2 hours away. I told my husband to go but I am staying put. I will never make him stay or not see his family when he himself has the time off. 
I'm just totally fine with it being separate especially thanksgiving it's a holiday about food. So you not going to his is just fine. If it's a 30 minute drive or less I could see doing both but over that, no thanks.

Answer

It’s fine as long as you both are ok with that.

Answer

I guess I'm old fashioned and I say just do what you always did before. I drove an hour to my in-laws lady thanksgiving at 8.5 months pregnant with a 13 month old. sometimes sacrifices have to be made.

Answer

I wouldn’t split up. I would do one year with on and the next with the other. Or start hosting and have everyone come to you.
