Christmas is my favorite season, but Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. My family, all 25+ of us, pile into the same house for 3 or 4 days and bust through a tradition list that continues to grow. Here are some of our traditions...Turkey dinner (obviously)
Run a 5K Thanksgiving morning
Football (playing and watching)
Hearts (the card game)
Nerts (another card game)
Basketball at the rec center
Busting open a pinata (see photo above)
Passing out Christmas lists
Mexican dinner on Friday night (I do a backwards roll out of my chair at this meal. It's quite a sight)
Go to a movie as a family
Chex Mix
Chili supper on Wednesday night (which is tonight. I can't wait)
Video games
My uncle always reads our list of traditions
A round of frisbee golf
Celebrate my Aunt Mary's birthday
And the list goes on and on....
Happy Thanksgiving!

I think we're going to have to add going to Zona Rosa the night of Thanksgiving to the list. It'll be the third year this year!
ReplyDeleteI laughed out loud at work when I read and pictured in my brain you rolling out of your chair at Rancho.
