I don't like cole slaw but I remember the year my grandmother didn't serve it....it didn't go over well lol so yes, we have coke slaw on all the holidays.
I just asked my H if he ever had it and his family does not serve it at Thanksgiving. Hmmm. I never noticed!
Emerson Kate, born 38w5d on 4/6/12 at 6:02 p.m., 5 lbs 13 oz and 18 3/4 inches. Lucas Matthew, born 39w5d on 4/11/14 at 8:20 a.m., 7 lbs 4 oz and 20 inches.
But now I kind of want to detour to kdrake8's house to be the bitch with some seriously choice words so she doesn't have to.
Boston? So close! You hate your inlaws and need an escape right?
HA! I would looooooooove to escape and see you, but it's a short trip and we're packed with family commitments. I wish I'd known you live nearby- we'll be out there again in the spring and we WILL plan something!

Now I'm wondering if it's all holiday meals for us our just Christmas and Easter. I think all. I'll have to pay attention this year.
We're going to my parents house. I'm excited it's their year. They are the best cooks ever!
How long will you be in town? Just a short trip?
Not quite sure yet. We're coming in wednesday, but H may have to come back Friday for a stupid football game. A and I would probably stay a little longer. If not this trip, we'll be in after Christmas. We'll have to make something work

We're hosting 8 people, so 11 total. We serve soup, turkey, sweet potato marshmallow casserole, stuffing, asparagus and rolls. Lots of appies to start - cheese, crackers, hummus, chips, guac. Desserts will be a pumpkin tart, pecan tart, fruit and cookies. Lots of GF options this year for my sister. Hoping it all comes out good!

We are going to TX to spend it with my family! Unless I hear otherwise at my growth scan tomorrow with my peri.
My siblings and their spouses will be there, and so will some extended family on my dad's side. I'm not cooking...we are driving in on thanksgiving just before the meal and staying through the weekend.

We have a long standing Friendsgiving we go to every year with great people Matt has known almost his whole career in the army. I'm excited to eat in our sweats, watch our kids play, and relax.
Ask in quotes bc they said they wouldn't come if she wasn't welcome. So, once again we would be seen as responsible for splitting up the family. They also tried to insist we invite the grandfather who made the sexual comment about mila but that's a certain no. [/quote]
We are driving to my parents' house Wednesday night. Duck season opens Thanksgiving morning, and it's a long standing tradition for all the guys to go duck hunting. My mom is hosting Thanksgiving this year, so my sisters and I will help her get things ready for lunch. Thursday night we have to go to my monster-in-law's house.
The rest of the weekend will be spent shopping, visiting with friends and other family, and relaxing. The guys will do an insane amount of hunting.
ILs at two. My parents (where I live) at five. My dad's house sometime over the weekend just for a visit.
ETA: non-crazy shopping (probably kohls mid morning) and dinner on Friday with ILs and the new pastor from church. Saturday? I want to do something fun. Sunday- Ian's bday! Church, dinner, Christmas tree lighting event at church.
