I am thankful for:
My family, your family, and all the food im going to get to eat from your family!!!
Enjoy Thanksgiving and be sure to let the people who you appreciate know that you... that you oh ya.. That you really appreciate them. Many of them are old and probably won't be around a long time. Please remind them of this while you are expressing your appreciation! Ask them what they think you could get for their wedding ring or their truck. This way, they'll realize that yes, there was a reason that you attended their dinner for this holiday.
Remember, they love you and want you to be happy so feel free to give them your list of must have, most expensive things, that you would need for Christmas. No need to tell them thanks in advance, as they already know how much you appreciate the gifts they give you that never fit, and they'd only be embarrassed.
Please remember to stay out of the way during the preperation of Thanksgiving Dinner. Everyone knows you'd like to help out with making squash or slicing the turkey. But if you ask if they need help, they'll only say yes to be nice to you since that's what family does. Don't make it all about you. Sit down and let them feel good about serving you. Same goes for clean-up. You're better off keeping your eyes on the deserts to make sure those youngsters don't eat all of your favorite pie. Besides like I said before, they are getting old and like their space, especially when doing dishes.
Also... Don't let little cousins win all the games that they drag you into playing. They will appreciate the opportunity to finally play a fair game. Convince them that winning isn't everything. They're about to enter the real world and need to learn that it's tough out there.
With that all being said enjoy your TURKEY DAY!
