Hi, as a kid our version of thanksgiving was always going to grandmas, it was stressful, not very much fun and always felt like we were just going through the motions. Now that I have 2 small children ages (at time of) 28 months and 11 months and a husband(dog too but she doesn't factor into this lol) I want to make new traditions, fun ones that are not just going through the motions. My parents can't come but a close family friend in his late 50's will be coming as well. I want to trim the tree(we are cutting a fresh one the sunday prior) eat a nice meal and beyond that I don't know what else to do, football is out, no one but my husband enjoys it currently. Any ideas? We live in iowa, in a house in a small town near des moines. Also meal ideas would be great, I don't really know what are traditional foods. thanks everyone in advance
