If the weather allows our daughter, and family will make the three hour plus trip, ("Over the river, and through the woods"), to our home as will the other daughter closer. Son Jake is right here.
We do the feast at midday, or close. It should be a house full, that's great.
You good folks have plans?

Having it right here at home. Family folks all live fairly close[20 miles or less]. I don't want to hassle going anywhere over the Holidays, so, we have it here. Food, football, booze of some sort, everybody here. Works.

My MIL had a stroke last month and is in a rehab center. We'll have her home for T-day. Just the 3 of us. Then about 5am on Friday, I'll be leaving for the last 2 days of elk hunting.

KYHillChick is planning to execute the same turkey dinner as has been served in the family since. . .
. . . All I know is I was around when Great Grandma Agnes passed things off to Grandma Charlotte back in 1962. My Mom's only change was the addition of corn pudding back in the early 70's. Agnes' clan is listed among the Plymouth Rock Wetbacks, so who knows.
KYHillChick apprenticed under Mom after dad died in 2011. Mom threw in the apron the next year. Mom's 90 now, and she's hanging in there, but she's strictly a spectator now.
KYHillChick's big change has been the advent of pecan and pumpkin pies-- best I ever ate. I get a piece of each.
All three sons and grandaughter #1 are expected to attend.

The kids will be with Jess's folks tomorrow and come here on Friday. We are going to do the turkey thing on Saturday. Tomorrow, the wife and I will have a small standing rib roast.
To continue with Richard's song line (because I can't pass up any chance to provide tidbits of information that aren't commonly known), the rest of the line is usually misquoted. It is "to GRANDFATHER'S house we go". Later on, Grandmother gets her mention as her cap is spied.

Spent many holidays with my second family at the firehouse and had some memorable calls too.....like the time the drunk husband criticized the drunken wife’s turkey dinner and the drunken wife sunk the carving knife into the drunken husband’s back. 😂. That’ll ruin the holiday spirit as quick as anything. Stay safe Chief and may your day be filled with good food, good friends and no calls. 👍

Everyone on here be safe if you travel and enjoy the day.
And make sure you take the time to actually be thankful for what you have .

We pray our sights be straight
and our aim be true
We pray for no pain
to the game we pursue
We thank you Lord
for this land
We thank you for the sights
from our stands
We pray for safety, one and all
We pray we may return next fall
