Sunday before Thanksgiving

Just a few days away!
Samantha, Erin and Tracy
Getting ready to have a few family members here, should be interesting to say the least! We will put Barbara and Rob along with Tracy (youngest grand daughter) in the camper, Samantha (next youngest grand daughter) wants to sleep with Grandpa and Grandma!
If my sister comes we will put them upstairs on air mattresses -  since we don't have any beds other than the one we sleep on but it will work out.
Heather and Dru will come, along with Matt, Stephen and Michael but they will not be spending the night so dinner will be the traditional turkey, dressing, lots of gravy, deviled eggs, green bean casserole, corn on the cob, mac n cheese for the little ones, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie spiced tea and whatever else goes along with that sleepy time meal! (And of course paper plates ) Heather and Michael are both on vegetarian diets so a 20 lb turkey should be enough??
Thinking that I will enlist my two grand daughters to make cookies and decorate them; that should keep them busy while the real cooking stuff gets going! I also have construction paper for turkey name place markers that they will make for dinner...... oh yea and gotta have the chalk for the sidewalk drawings! LOL These are the things that Grandparents do!
The weather will be warm in the 70's so we won't be stuck inside the whole time.
This will probably be the last Thanksgiving we will spend in our house; will I miss cleaning three bedrooms, huge kitchen and family room? Not at all! I do love a clean house but the smaller area to clean the easier it will be to keep clean! (Just my train of thought - although we will have our home on the road it will be large enough for us and small enough to keep clean!)
I have seen campers with dishwashers! Well my thoughts on that is that it will not be necessary because it's only the two of us and how many dishes can you dirty that can't be cleaned in a short time, so space for storage wins that one! At least with me....I got the washer/dryer and that is more important.
Larry posted that I wash when there are three pieces of dirty clothes! LOL well maybe :)
Sunday, time for rest and rejuvination... awesome Church service and left over home made pizza for lunch....time for a nap!
Lean on Christ - He is the Only way!
