To begin, I have an awesome generous mother in law that I have convinced to join us at Disney for 11 nights this August.
A little background.... In July 2013, DH, DD, Dmil, Dfil and myself were going to Disney for 10 days. My Dmil and I worked out the payment. We were taking care of the three of us and she paid for Dfil and herself. Well I sent her the breakdown and she wired the entire balance to us. It was about 12 grand. She refused to take it back. Well they cancelled because he got ill and we kept all of the money. There was no way she would take it back.
Last year, two weeks before we went DFIL passes away and we tried to convince her to come with us, she promised to come with us next time.
So that brings us to present day. We have budgeted to pay for her and we are bringing my niece. She is now wanting to know when we need the money to pay for it. I tried to explain that this is a gift to her for being so great to us but she won't take no for an answer. So I told her $500 will cover her flight and we do the rest but she wants a total price of everything. The all in price for 5 of us is an estimated 11 grand.
What would you suggest I do? I appreciate her help but I want to take her away and thank her.
