I dropped this note on the B1G board, but not all the B12ers read that one so wanted to leave it here, too.
Stopping by to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving!!
My parents are getting on in years, both are now 80+, and although they're still in reasonably good health (which I am very thankful for), my siblings and I decided several years back, that they didn't need the pressure and stress of hosting Thanksgiving anymore, so we now alternate it among our houses.
This year is my year to host and I'm excited about it, it'll be our 3rd time to do so, and I love having the whole family over-- my kids do, too. We'll have 12 adults and 8 kids ranging from 1 year to 15 years. I'm smoking a turkey, my dad is frying one, my mom is making two huge batches of her cornbread dressing, and then we'll have all the other usual stuff like sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, homemade yeast rolls, and pumpkin and pecan pies with homemade whipped cream for dessert. Probably won't be able to move for the rest of the weekend and that's okay.
Anyway, wishing a great Tday to all of you and yours!
