Re: I know this is stupid...MIL issue...UPDATE WITH WEIRDNESS
Lauren,
My vote is to send her a picture of you as Storm and Logan as Iron Man and photoshop that pic of you guys into the picture of them all at Disney! Problem solved!

Re: I know this is stupid...MIL issue...UPDATE WITH WEIRDNESS
I think its funny the picture has to be of you two at Disney. . . it could be the two of you in your basement if she is going to photoshop it in anyway 
I find is strange, sorry - I know it is hard to get a picture of the family all together but once you have to photoshop someone in - it takes away from the point of the card for me

Re: I know this is stupid...MIL issue...UPDATE WITH WEIRDNESS
having read the whole thread, I get it. It's annoying. The dig was totally unnecessary. I'd do it anyway (b*tching the entire time).

Re: I know this is stupid...MIL issue...UPDATE WITH WEIRDNESS
I missed the part about her being twisted that you went w/ your family and not hers - so I agree it's kind of a dig. - I"m usually 1st to jump on the "Your MIL is insane and totally out of line" wagon, but this one to me is one of those grin and bear it things .........I'd just do it and

Re: I know this is stupid...MIL issue...UPDATE WITH WEIRDNESS
I wouldn't call it bad blood, but as in any realtionship where you had a buffer and then that buffer is gone, it's difficult.
Scott used to handle the passive aggressiveness and the oddities. Now I'm left to fend for myself.
I think I have been super sensitive to their POV, but them not as much towards mine.
FIL and I have had some issues because of his behavior with Logan, but I think we are okay.
They did offer to pay for Disney, but I'm out of vacation time.
And I do hate my BIL, LMAO at your comment, Janice.
Ultimately I'll send her a picture, but since she wants ME to photoshop it in, I may not have those skills.

I am sure more has gone on this year then I know of, so without knowing anything but a grandmother wanting to showoff her grandson and his mother, i would send pic.
but this is coming from someone who doesn't even send her mil a christmas card, so whatever we all have our own special relationships.
I am sorry Janice, I know its not funny AT ALL but you post has me dying with the"special relationships" part.

Re: I know this is stupid...MIL issue...UPDATE WITH WEIRDNESS
I agree that it requires a phone call to clear the air.
Personally I wouldn't want to be photoshopped into someone else's Christmas card, so I'd probably decline...do they always send a card of all of their children & grandchildren or is it just this year?

Re: I know this is stupid...MIL issue...UPDATE WITH WEIRDNESS

My MIL just emailed me to ask for a picture of me and Logan from our Disney trip to use on her Christmas Card this year.
I went to Disney with MY family, not them.
I know it's stupid and petty and in the grand scheme it doesn't matter, but I really don't want a picture of me or of Logan on her cards.
Those are for my cards.
So, what would you do?
UPDATE:
I decided to go ahead and send her one. I asked if she wanted horizontal or vertical.
Her response:
"Up and down please. I'm going to have you photoshop yourselves into a picture of the rest of us since you aren't going with US to Disney."
Ummm...does that change your response?
No, because I said politely decline! HA! I think that if she wants a picture of her whole family for HER Christmas card then she should arrange a family photo session.

They've never done any kind of photo card that I know of.
Disney came out with a new line of them, so I suspect that is what is sparking this.

But, I do like this idea best!

ITA! I don't think I'd do it.

Re: I know this is stupid...MIL issue...UPDATE WITH WEIRDNESS
I may have to change my answer to WWSD?
What would Scott do? Would he send his mom a photo of you, him & Logan to photoshop? Or would he tell her she's being weird?
