Stayed in Oceanside, went to Legoland and Disneyland 2 days. Weather was very nice... My in-laws paid for most of it as well, so you are correct in saying it is not that unheard of. Dining out is a killer on the tab....we actually cooked in a few nights and saved some money and ate healthier. My wife and I paid for some meals out and I played a round of golf...and we paid amusement park entrance fees...our tab probably ran about $800 plus $200 in gas to get there and back. (We have a 2 year old on the tab also...) Flexo,

I don't see a problem with it as long as my mother is not sacrificing anything in order to do so. She knows she doesn't have to do this for us, but she likes to. When I am in the position to do the same for my family, I certainly will. It's not really that unheard of. I’ve offered to pay our way.
