Zero.

Maybe that's why I'm so bored.

We always GO somewhere. This year we just got back earlier.....

Wow!!! That's a lot of people Todd!!! We had zero here as well. Just us and the kitties

35!!! Yikes! We had 16 total. Everything was delicious, if I do say so myself The only bad thing about today's dinner is that there are hardly any leftovers!

29!!

Next year, we do it buffet-style. We had one long table and two tables for 8 each, so had bowls of food on each table. My dear SIL (visiting from Louisiana!) washed dishes for hours after dinner. It was great fun, and my Dear Mom had all her kids here. (forgot to get a picture with all of us though!)
It's not even 7 PM, and they have all gone home! (of course, some of them were here before 11 AM!)

None. We're not having Thanksgiving until tomorrow. There's supposed to be 10 with about 7-10 more invited to come. But it'll be at my mom's house.

 

[bsnyder]

None at my house....I'm a mooch and went to my cousin's. She hosted 45 of us, and the food was delicious!

A big fat 0!

I went to my sister in law's, there was 17 over. Including a 4 month old neice I hadn't met yet. .

We had 14 my children and their children.

It was a lovely day, (pat on the back) excellent food. Some laughs, a few disagreements which is common in my house. For some reason my family loves a good argument. Not me I learned to stay out of the disagreements.

Yes a day to truly be thankful for.

Today I am feeling a little down. I know I've discussed this before on the boards. My oldest DD is going through treatments for an illness. She is having a tough time, She has her treatment the beginning of the week and usually by Thursday she is feeling better. This week has been tough on her and she was not feeling well.

As I sit here all alone today, everyone gone, my heart is breaking for her. Knowing the upcoming holidays are at the beginning of the week and praying the Christmas Holiday will find her feeling better.

Just ONE-DBF came over and I cooked a turkey.....it's my one quiet holiday a year. The rest are spent with my family and usually include a minumum of 18. I kinda like the quiet Thanksgiving, it helps me regroup for the hectic Christmas season!

We have a BIG gathering on New Year's Day too which is like a repeat of Christmas only without the presents. Does anyone else do that?

We always have a family gathering on New Year's day too, mamu.

We had no guests for Thanksgiving this year. We went out for dinner.
