We live in Seattle but my husband's family is in England and mine is in Australia, so we are here alone. We got used to having Christmas alone, just the four of us but this year was going to be extra special because my inlaws were going to fly in to spend the holiday with us. We were all so excited, especially my two boys who are 3 and 5! Now, because of the snow in England, their flight was canceled and so was their alternate flight that we managed to book. It really sucks. We haven't had Christmas with family in 6 years and now it looks like it's going to be even longer.

Excuse my little pity party here.
