So do ya have any Thanksgiving traditions? Dishes you always make? Places you go every year? I wanna know all about it....what can I say, I'm curious...
My family is a bit insane...
We typically gather in Redding California (none if my family is from Redding CA, they all moved there...on purpose, I told you, they're insane) @ either my Dad's, my brother's, or my sister's home (they are all within walking distance of each other...more proof of their insanity).
This gathering normally includes:
Brother #1, his wife and 6 children (6 kids, are you starting to believe that they're insane)
Brother #2, his wife and 3 children + Brothers childhood friend, his wife and 2 more kids
Sister, her husband and 7 children + 4 or 5 inlaws (yeah you read that right...7 kids....insane)
Myself, my girlfriend, and 2 kids
Mom and Stepdad
Dad and Stepmom, their 3 additional kids, one of their grandkids, 2 additional kids spouses, and one of Stepmoms nephews.
A couple people from their church.
Are ya'll doing the math? We typically have around 50 people.... (dinner for 50? in one house? You must be insane)
The next morning the wimminz get up @ like 3 a.m. to go shopping (this is not an exaggeration, remember they're insane)
The guys take the kids to the movies while the wimminz are shopping (Yeah we're a bit insane as well)
Oh yeah...all of this is accomplished w/o a drop of alcohol being consumed (again....insane)
I wouldn't miss it for the world....next year I'm gonna drag a few extra people to Redding w/ us. I wonder if I could push this to 75 people
