Thanksgiving Plans

Ok, so I am planning on doing Thanksgiving at our house this year. Most every holiday we spend running the roads from my mom's to my dad's to Dave's family (or something close to that schedule). This time everyone can come visit at our place and we won't feel as rushed, hopefully.

This means that, by inviting everyone, there may be 50+ people to entertain and feed. I also need to figure out exactly which dishes I want to take care of myself and which ones I would like for others to bring. I am very exciting to be doing Thanksgiving here at home! I am hoping that all goes well and it is not too overwhelming.

And just so no one feels left out or not invited, here is the preliminary list of everyone I'm hoping will show (all single adults are allowed to bring a guest):

Dave's Side: Mary (Mom), Betsy, Ritchie, Dylan, Brooke, Irene, Richard, Andy, Stacey, Addy, Drew, Tim, Sandy, Warren (Dad), Karen, Melissa, Jeff, Michael

Sharon's Side: Carol (Mom), Paul, Daniel, Gabriel, John, Casey, Vicki, Phil, Billy, Bill (Dad), Becky, Joel, Kristy, John, Alyssa, Stephanie, Jordan, Tommy, Jen, Miranda, Sadie

Maw's Side: Maw, Big Aunt Judy, Little Aunt Judy, Uncle Jerry, Ashley, Donnie, Tiffany, Travis, Jake, Aunt Margaret, Uncle Mike, Matthew, Mitchell, Maxwell

I'll add another post in the next couple of days with a list of food for everyone to pick from to bring to the house. Everyone can send me an email or call me to let me know whether you are coming or not and if you'd like to bring a dish or not. More to come later...
