  Husband emailed The Ex on New Year's Day, went over what they had talked about the night before, said he'd bring the kids but would be staying with them, asked her to check with her sister and make sure this was okay because they were meeting at the sister's house, etc.  The Ex didn't reply.

  However, the next night, her sister (The one who was supposedly hosting the Christmas party) sent Husband a text asking if it would be okay for her to take the kids to the party and wants to leave by 10:30am (Wait a minute....I thought the party was at your house.  Why are you "taking" the kids anywhere if they're supposed to be going to your house??)  Husband texts her back, said he already emailed The Ex about it.  Husband then texts The Ex and asks her to please check her email and get back to him.  The Ex does not.

  The next night, Husband sends The Ex another email saying he has no idea what's going on.  The Ex said the party was at her sister's house; now the sister is saying she wants to "take" the kids to the party.  Husband says this is exactly why he wants this done in writing, so things like this don't happen.  The Ex ignores the emails, leaves him a message that night saying she wants to talk about it but can't check her email until the morning when she can go to her cousin's house (Yeah, because that smartphone you own that has Internet capability isn't going to let you check your email)

  The Ex emailed Husband back Friday afternoon and is hostile, right off the bat.  She says again she doesn't have email(Then how are you emailing Husband?  Do you mean you don't have Internet service?  Because that is a lie) or a texting plan (Fair enough, she might not have that).  The Ex says, "Being confused is your fault and you need to pay more attention." (And there it is!  It's all my Husband's fault, again! :D)  Says she never told him the party was at her sister's, "Not listening were we." (Yes, she wrote that.  Attitude aside, she most certainly did tell him the party was at her sister's.  Why would he make that up?) Launches into a speech about how her sister was only trying to get the kids because Husband is not communicating (What???  Husband sent some umpteen emails, The Ex ignored him, had her sister and parents calling Husband trying to set things up, and then accuses Husband of "not communicating" with her) and now claims that she told Husband if he brings the kids to the party, she only wants one person to come with them (And that, ladies and gentlemen, was the deal breaker.  The Ex and Boyfriend have both been convicted of disorderly conduct, her dad has been to prison, her sister just got out of jail - these are not the most upstanding, moral characters.  All it takes is one of them to call the police and claim that Husband threatened them physically and/or verbally, the rest of them would be "witnesses" and Husband would have a record.)

  Husband emailed The Ex later, said he was sorry for missing the party but he is not comfortable with that; says The Ex never said he or I had to come alone, that was not discussed and he would not have agreed to it.  Says he still would like to set something up with her so that the kids can celebrate Christmas with her side of the family.  The Ex never responded.
