So my fiancé and I are a few years apart, he's 36 and I'm 24. Completely head over heals in love. Butterfly's all the time! We are getting married Oct 11th and have been TTC for 6 months (hopefully this is our month!) anyways, we both come from completely different families. The only thing they have in common is being dysfunctional. My family is the loud mouth opinionated Italians from Chicago, and his comes from a more...Ruhl area we'll call it. They are "hunters" aka....never mind, I'm a vegetarian, we will just put it that way. And since we've been together he hasn't hunted. He made the decision out of respect for me. Anyways....Well he was married for 10 years and has been divorced for almost 5 and I feel like his family has never really accepted me. My SO and his family really aren't close even though they live 5 Min away (along with his ex), but they sure know how to call him when they need something (he's handy). They always try to find some way to bring up his ex wife, like we were talking about our wedding and contemplating not getting a DJ and his mother goes, ya I don't see a need, you already had your big wedding, you remember the hassle, it's not worth it. I just sat there like ummmm so since he's been married before I don't deserve to have a nice wedding?!! Unfortunately we are paying for our wedding ourselves and his mom always brings up how his Exs parents took out a 140,000 loan for their wedding. It's like they don't take us seriously. 

Ok enough back information, anyways.....Well I offered to host Easter this year and spent a lot of time and money making it special (accommodating diets, times, etc) all home made from scratch; I'm Italian that's what we do. Even though I don't eat meat I still went over and beyond for everyone. I cook meat, I touch it, I just don't eat it. Well today his aunt decided to post this stupid picture of a bunch of sticks and leaves hanging on a wall and captioned it "since you can't hang real ones in your house, try these". First of all, YOUR HOUSE! Umm excuse me, this is our house and second of all I don't find that funny. If you want to live like a Hoosier and hang dead animals on your walls go right ahead but I'm not living in a barn! I'm sorry I don't want dead animal "trophies" hanging on my living room wall. When I told him I was offended and didn't think it was funny he just looked at me like a deer in the head lights (no pun intended) until i said HELLO?! and he responded, "she was probably just trying to be funny" and left it at that.
