Any thoughts? How have you worked this out in your relationships?

A good way that works is try to decide which holiday is more important to the "fussy" or upset set of parents. It sounds like that would be his, so I would try to figure out which holday they consider more important to spend with family.
If his mom LOVES christmas, and cant imagine spending it away from her darling, then go there. It will save you the pain of having to listen to her complain about her favorite holiday being "ruined", or same for thanksgiving. That worked well for me, because even though she might be sad you two are gone for one of them, she feels like she gets the better of the two holidays. Good luck!
