Re: December Airfares
I agree with Babalew! The first year that we decided to travel during Christmas and New Years....I was really stressed and guilt ridden. But.....it turned out fantastic and we have been going during the holidays ever since. Number 1, your children are grown and have kids of their own...it's not like you are leaving your 6 year old. Number 2, they are quite young and really won't realize it....my grand kids are 19, 13, 10, 8, and 4 years old. They definitely realize Nana is gone....but, they think it is really cool because they get my gifts early!!! And, I am there while they open them. Truly, I think they really appreciate them more since now days, kids here tend to get soooo much stuff! Plus, they know they generally get a few goodies upon return. 
Number 3....You have worked hard all your life raising them and I'm sure, you are great grandmother......so, you also deserve to enjoy life and seize the day. Life goes by so quickly and IMHO, if it fills you with joy, you will be so refreshed when you return!! Then, you can savor the time with them and later, be able to share many of your adventures with them (well, some of them LOL). As Smith 744 says, book, pack and go!! We booked our Dec trip quite early and really got a good deal. Actually, we couldn't make the summer trip due to higher rates than what we paid for Dec. Good luck and grab that Christmas Eve booking. Hope to see you there!!
