For as long as I can remember, my Mom's sided of the family has had Thanksgiving at my Aunt Anita's house. I have so many years of wonderful memories playing with my cousins through the years over at her house. Well, this last year, my Aunt Anita finally passed the buck to one of us younger ones to start a new tradition. So we had Thanksgiving this last year at MY house! I had all kinds of backyard activities planned, even had a bounce house lined up for the day...but it POURED down rain all day long. I was worried about how all 40+ of us would do stuck inside all day, but it went great.
The guys hardly ever left the Manroom & watched football all day.
The girls hardly ever left the kitchen & chatted all day. Actually, we cracked up laughing all day. That is my strongest memory of the day, is how much we laughed, and how many of us laughed so hard we cried! Good times!
And, the kids pretty much played in Dawson & Andi's rooms all day. Some of the brave girls did venture out for the fashion show that Andi initiated! Yay for a successful Thanksgiving...I am SUPER thankful for my crazy big family!
