I am the oldest of 6 brothers. We stopped traveling everywhere last year and have our own thanksgiving, we don't have to drive this huge group around, and the old people don't have to cook as much, it is easier on everyone that way.

 

makes great sense! my sister and her friend are coming from St. Louis to hang with us. My parents and aunt live about 30 min away and i'mcool with that. i like being able to relax in my owncrib. bring your plastic container for leftovers.
