Dh and I are both only children so our thanksgivings are always small. It’s only dh and me, the kids, mil, and my dad. It’ll be at our house or my dads. Dh makes the turkey the night before regardless of whose house and we serve it cut up in a crockpot with all the juices.

If it’s at our house my dad will make pies and I’ll handle the rest. If it’s at his house, I get to just show up.

Not entirely sure the exact plans or menus yet, but my older sister and her boys are coming down, and we (my siblings, me and our families) are getting together sometime. That’s about 26/27 people. That includes my father and his gf. My family also gets together with DH’s parents, SIL, BIL, and uncle. That’s 10 people there.

There will be 5 of us all together on Thanksgiving.

Turkey
Potatoes of some sort. Last year it was fried
Stuffing
Gravy
Rolls
Veggie
Cheesecake
Mocha pie
Cranberry sauce
The oranges of the island are like blazing fire
Amongst the emerald boughs
And the lemons are like the paleness of a lover
Who has spent the night crying.

Looks like we will have about 12 people- our five, my mom and step dad, my brother, his girlfriend, and his two girls. I can't wait to see my nieces again.

We're having the traditional- turkey and gravy, potatoes, stuffing, cranberry sauce. I also always add my homemade macaroni and cheese. And I have to have veggies, not sure what I'll be serving for that yet.

We have a big family, too many to count, LOL. It will be my family, my siblings and their families, my parents, DH's parents, DH's siblings, etc. My sister is hosting Thursday and we are hosting Friday.

We'll be having turkey, ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce, buttered rolls, sweet potato marshmallow casserole, green bean casserole, glazed carrots, brussels sprouts, and a variety of pies for dessert - probably pumpkin, apple, and pecan.
