You two should spend YOUR time as it pleases you two. Going to holiday dinners is great, as long as it's what you want to do, but if it's not, don't do it. You won't please everyone, but you've got to please yourselves.

Christmas eve sounds like a good compromise. Tell them you are planning on stopping by on christmas eve, you can even plan some simple ceremony or even have dinner or something. Tell them you are spending Christmas eve with them and want to spend Christmas day with just the three of you. It makes sense and nobody gets offended.

Any easy solution is inviting everybody to your house for a together. And to be honest if someone from your family doesnt want to come over then dont worry about it. Those who do want to spend Christmas together then they should come over and it would be nice to have both sides of the family over.Its just something new to try

Do Christmas with the in-laws on Christmas Eve. Do Christmas with your family at your house Christmas morning. You have a little one who will never get to play with his new toys on Christmas morning if you have to go to everyone else's house. Not to mention at 2 they still need naps and will get cranky as hell if they are over stimulated.

Stay home. Take a break. That's what we told everyone WE were doing this year. They were all upset. We told them to come to OUR house for once and we would cook. Guess what everyone said? No. They want to stay home, too.
