Holidays - November 2006

Hey everybody! Thanksgiving is on thursday and I am soooo bumed because I have no idea how I am going to cook four huge turkeys and all the other things for my HUGE family because I am eight months pregnant!

I have a bad feeling that this thanksgiving is going to be a disaster! I have no clue why our family of 4 parents, 2 grandparents, 8 nephews, 6 nieces, 2 brothers, 4 sisters, 3 brother in laws, 4 sister in laws, my husband, my 5 kids and I have to have thanksgiving dinner at my house. Thats like 38 people all together. I am supposed to be on bed rest, plus on thanksgiving night, my family always decorates the house for Christmas.

I need some fun kid things, a little rasurance, and a LOT of tips.

Also, I would love it if I could get some funny or not so funny holiday disasters that you had experienced!

Thanks, I would really apreciate it!!!

My husbands good friend lives very far from us. Every holiday there 11 yr. old son calls & say's he's coming over.(my husband is his god father.) I do'nt mind him coming over, it's that his parents don't even have the respect to call and ask what we are doing. Mind u , we lived in abig apt. but just recently moved into a very small 1 bedroom. (i havent even finished unpacking.) Now for thanksgiving me & my husband were planing a quiet night not even making turkey.there's no place for him to even sleep. Iam so upset at my husband that i dont even want to be here on thanksgiving.On the other hand (my husband recently just had a stroke about a month ago) i feel really bad that i don't want him to come but just look at it my way .For god sakes iam still upacking. How can i tell my husband that i really dont want his god son to come for thankgiving?

I'm trying to decide whether or not to put up a tree this Christmas. Should I or should I not? Reason is my husband and I are traveling overseas to spend the holidays with my in-laws and I don't know if it's worth decorating.

Tomorrow we are having Thanksgiving at my church and then on Thanksgiving we are driving 3 1/2 hours away to visit my inlaws. I am going to try not to gain 5 pounds this week. That's a lot of Turkey!

My mother-in-law is kinda hard to buy for... the woman has EVERYTHING. I found these cute 'candles' and I'm curious if it would be a good gift to give for Christmas. They seem to be safer than the kind of candle with a flame so that's why they're appealing to me. If you can, take a look and tell me if you'd give your mother-in-law something like this. Thanks!
