Gobble Gobble…

My family is ginormous…I’m the baby of 8…we are all married and each has children.  All-in-all….we total 36.  Thanks be to God we are all healthy and chuggin’ along.  One sister puts on a pre-Thanksgiving dinner for half of the family (we are blended) and the other sister puts on the entire day-of…we all are assigned dishes and that’s how my children identify all the different aunts, uncles and cousins they see once a year.  “Who is Uncle Jay, again?”…”He brings the whipped cream and chocolate dessert.”  “Aunt Lyn?”….”Squash Casserole.”  I know – it sounds sad – but it’s anything but.  It’s loud, festive and quick.  Yep – that’s the secret, people.

Thayer, thanks for everything.  Your house is a comfortable landing spot for everyone.  Jim, enjoyed the home brew “Mama B” style…
