What are your plans for Thanksgiving 2011?
#11
I really haven't given it any thought. I don't think I will do much. My son is suppose to go back to ID. mid month to be with his wife and daughter. My other son will I suppose spend time with his girlfriends family. I really don't know. I guess I should think about it.

since i have to work this year- after work hubby and i will be going out to dinner- Daughter and granddaughter's will be joining us- son in law just left (being deployed) so the girls are not all that excited to fix a dinner- so we will all enjoy the afternoon/evening together at a resturant....i will still cook some- the bad thing about going out is eating too much for dessert- and no left overs---so i'm going to make us some left overs and pie of course :)-will probably make a pie for the girls to take home with them too.

We have it at my house. My DIL's parents join us and bring the turkey and dressing my SIL's mother brings the ham and his sister brings the pies. So it's 3 families and I don't have much to cook! We have a good time.

Not sure...generally hubby and kids and I go out for dinner and a movie on Thanksgiving day and then I host for our extended families on Sat.
Things have a way of changing when kids get married. I am guessing son and daughter-in-law will go to her family inh Ohio on T'giving day. Not sure what newlywed daughter and son-in-law will do...guessing go to his family that day. And youngest daughter (a Purdue senior) may plan to spend that day with her boyfriend of over a year. Imagine hubby and I will still go out to dinner, though. I will still be having about 30+ guests on Sat.
We always put the tree up on the evening of Thanksgiving...I do think we will still do that. Very hard to believe we are talking about Thanksgiving...time sure does fly!

I'll probably be home by myself, with Stouffer's turkey microwave dinner. They are pretty good, actually. Try to work on a quilt. Not a bad day, except it's so much like every other day. But I pray more on days like this, and it goes much better, so I am not complaining.
