Today, I took my parents and 3 sisters to the airport so they could take a trip to Hawaii. I wasn't invited because they don't like my husband. They asked me to watch the dog and water the plants. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my parents invited all their kids and grandkids to join them on a vacation trip to the mountains; all their kids except me, that is. I'm not invited. But they did invite my ex-husband. And his new girlfriend. FML
Today, my parents, my two sisters and their significant others went on a vacation and dropped their children at my house without ever asking me. I'm single, live alone, and can barely make ends meet, and they know it. FML
Today, as planned, my dad confirmed that he would be flying up to visit me for the weekend. Not planned, however, was that my whiny and high-maintenance sister invited herself along too. There's no way I can dis-invite her without offending my dad. FML
Today, my parents asked me if I was sure I didn't want to join them on a family trip tomorrow with my sister. I was never invited, and unlike the rest of the family, I have a full-time job where I can't just take days off with no warning. This is how they announce most "family trips" to me. FML
Today, I had to watch my husband and kids go off on our trip to Hawaii without me because I forgot my wallet at home and couldn't afford to take a later flight. FML
Today, my sister and I were planning a trip to get away from things and visit some faraway friends. My dad then decided to insert himself into our plans. He got mad when we said no, and couldn't understand why we wanted to go by ourselves. FML
Today, my whole family called me ungrateful and my parents are threatening to ground me because I turned down an invitation to go with my extended family to Hawaii for spring break. I literally just started a new part-time job, but they won't listen. FML
Today, my parents asked me if I would dog-sit for them while they go to my ex's wedding. FML
Today, my whole family made an hour-long drive to a restaurant that's just a few minutes away from my place. I wasn't invited. FML
Today, my parents canceled our trip to Greece because my siblings were being brats. When I tried to point out that I wasn't doing anything, they just shrugged and said, "Sorry honey." FML

Without knowing all parties, hard to say who is the right. Your family may be intolerant, or husband may be genuinely difficult.

True enough that we can't judge the situation, because the husband could be a jerk, BUT, OP should not have taken those people who don't support her marriage to the airport, nor should the family have asked for such a cruel favor.

Replace whatever plants they have with huge ones that make navigating the house impossible. Replace the dog with a wolf (or a very big, noisy dog). Tell them how good you were at taking care of everything, and point out how healthy everything has grown while they were away.

Honestly, this isn't as cold as people are making it to be. It would be worse for the wife to abandon her husband to take a trip, which her family realises. Also, as anyone browsing this site should be extremely aware... some guys are major ******* assholes. Do you want to spend a week or more with an asshole in close proximity much of the time? No. Sometimes we must, but her family had the option of not putting themselves through that. From the way this looks, the parents were also paying for the trip. Why would someone want to pay to spend a week with an asshole? All it takes is one person to make a trip unenjoyable, and you avoid that by not bringing them.
