Kellie58, since they haven't mentioned meeting another time after the holidays, maybe you could suggest it. Your nephew knows you well enough that he'd probably understand. You could even invite them to your house and that would eliminate the awkwardness of your brother's wife. I know how hard the holidays are and I've become very skilled at maneuvering around situations I don't want to be a part of. ;o)

I agree with heyjude10969. Make a suggestion to meet at another time. Holidays are hard for me too with the loss of my Daddy and my daughter. I just cherish what I do have now and I don't take anything for granite any more.
Hope things work out for you.
