Family not accepting my divorce.

My divorce has been final for about a year now. I have since moved on and started dating, much to the apparent disappointment of my family. They have not been supportive of my divorce, and still invite my ex-husband to familly functions, including holidays. My ex and I communicate - I would go as far as to say we are still friends. We have no children - which is one of the reasons we got a divorce. After seveal years, he decided he wanted to start a familly, and I never wanted one (and made it quite clear from the beginning). How do I get my familly to understand that we made the decision together, and are better off because of it? With the holidays coming up, it's going to be tough enough for me as it is. I just don't want to have to address the "what's he doing for the holidays?" or "how come he didn't come home with you?"
