Well somebody's got to look after the kids, house & dog right?
lol, just kidding!
Tell her you will be doing extreme sports & there are really no activities for her. Promise to give her some cash & send her to a casino or bingo. Otherwise let your wife handle it cos you never want to be caught between your wife & her mom.

Does your wife get along with her mother? If the answer is yes, keep this thought in mind.....when this woman passes from this world " any time your wife could have spent with her Mother will be "Bonus Time" that she will have missed out on. Relax and enjoy, you will in the end reap the benefits. If you have children, give them the chance to learn from her things that you can't teach them. Older people are a benefit to us in so many ways. Allow this woman to truely be part of your family unit. Of course if this woman is a Demon it is a completely different story.......tell her you'll pick her up Sunday morning, but leave for your trip Friday afternoon, and pray to God she forgets all about it between Friday and Sunday.

sit ur mom in law down and tell her how long it is since u took ur wife on a real holiday with just the 2 of u. of how u dont get quality time together cos of busy work schedules. tell her all the romantic things that you have planned for the both of you to do . request her for time alone with ur wife and promise her that you will make it up to her someday . Make her feel like she has given her daughter to an amazing guy who is extremely thoughtful and loving. Baically suck up to her and pull a quick one over her eyes.
Hope u and ur wife have the most amazing time ALONE

I would let her come.As much as you may not believe it to be a good idea,I think you will find some positive points to it.You won't have to go with her on dull tourist induced shopping trips that us women love so dearly.And it will give you time to do things that maybe you know she has no intrest in.Plus,as a mother i know a mothers love.We won't be around forever and we just want to get in every possible moment we can with our daughters.Now my mother?HAHA.I'd say no.But she's not exactly the mother type.

If you and your in laws get along, I say go for it. We always took vacations with our in laws and had so much fun doing it. There is really no reason why in laws can't get along.

Sounds like a .44 would take care of it, Leave the M-I-L at home where she belongs. It's your vacation away from her.

It's up to your wife to talk to her mother.

Tell her that you are taking your wife and taking a well deserved r&r and as much as you hate it ..no family is coming along.......Maybe you all can do something together when you get back...
