For Thanksgiving we had a family dinner at my mothers house.
Since my husband is disabled, and even before, we usually celebrated important holidays at our home. Our family is grown up with children, and grandchildren of their own. It is difficult to get everyone together at one time. We did manage it last Christmas Eve.
We had twelve people here for a Thanksgiving Turkey dinner. Two of my daughters helped me out and did the cleanup. It is wonderful to have some of the grandchildren and greatgrandchildren here for the meal.
We had my daughter, her daughter in law and her grandson(our oldest greatgrandson) here for the weekend.
We had lots of food, delicious gravy, apple crisp, lemon pie and pumpkin pie, icecream included for dessert. We has all home cooking, including rolls, coleslaw, dressing and cranberry sauce. We were very happy with hosting Thanksgiving.
