We have vacationed for the last several thanksgivings and easters. These are more minor holidays for our family and not spent with extended family.
Our school (and my work) schedule is terrible and the only 4 day weekends in the entire school year are thanksgiving and easter and the only week off is Christmas week - we have Christmas at home and then travel to visit family the rest of the time we are off.
DH can’t really get away with taking more than 2 weeks off over the summer - his availability for time off ends 8/1, kids don’t get out of school till late June so there not much wiggle room for summer vacations. We generally do an extended family grandparent sponsored vacation and another one with friends. And once August hits I take the kids to visit family.
Would love the ability to do more travel from Sept-June but the school schedule makes it very difficult.
