Mine was awesome! Woke up and got ready to go.. My brother picked me up and I road up with him to my grandparents house (they live about 30 minutes away). We sat and visited for a little bit (because we got there early).. Then we all road up with my grandpa the rest of the way.
We got there and most of the family was there. Maybe 30+ adults and and a bunch of teenagers/kids. We all sat around visiting. I made sure to mingle with everyone. After I got a couple drinks in me, it was easier. Lol.. Dinner was ready a couple hours later.
We had all the traditional fixings and a few extra things.. I ate so much my sides hurt. I felt like I was going to explode!
After dinner I went to sit on the couch to digest and watch tv for a while. We were watching football for a while, then the some of the women took the TV over. They wanted to watch some of their favorite American Idol clips my aunt had saved on her DVR/t-vo thing.
I went out and road the quads / 4 wheelers / atv's / whatever you call them. My uncle has a lot of land so I was offroading all over the place. I almost flipped going up a steep hill but luckily I didnt.
Me and my cousin were racing at one point. I kicked his ass! 😎
After that I went back in and had some desert. Sampling a few different pies.
Then went back to mingle with the fam for a bit. Once it got dark me and my bro went out on the quads again (they have headlights on them) which was fun. I never did it in the dark before.. We did that for about half hour.. Went back in and my grandma looked tired and ready to go.. But I know she wouldnt say so because she is too polite for that. So I said that I was tired and wanted to go.. She seemed relieved to hear me say that. So we said our goodbyes and headed home. We made it to grandparent's house and said good night. On the way home from there we stopped by my brother's friend's parent's house to pick up my brother's friend. Their little thanksgiving get-to-gether was still going on so they invited us in and the grandma insisted we come in and eat, so we did.
I finally made it home at around 9:45pm.. Stuffed to death and tired from a long day.
This was probably one of the better thanksgiving's Ive had in the past few years. 🙂
