Seasonal fashion

My wife gave me a call today and told me that the in-laws were coming to stay with us for a couple of weeks. When she told me this I immediately said that we should probably put them up in any one of the nice hotels in Boston Massachusetts that we live right next to. I really didn’t want to deal with them in our house for that amount of time, not because I don’t enjoy their company or anything, but simply because of the space. Plus, it just makes me uncomfortable to have tons of people crawling all over my house.

But I didn’t really know how to broach the subject with her. She loves her family a great deal and doesn’t get to see them that often, but I don’t really understand why she never makes a point to go see them. Anyway, what I decided to do was lay out a couple of brochures from some of the nicer Boston hotels. I know this was kind of a pathetic ruse, but I had to try everything I could to get her to put her parents in one of these places. The only reason they’re coming up is because they decided to have their living room remodeled, so I don’t really understand why they didn’t just get a hotel room on their own.
