thanksgiving

Thanksgiving at my house is one of the best days of the year. We have been hosting this holiday for several years now, and they are just getting better. The day starts off with kids vs. adults football game which includes a lot of my cousins and neighbors. Over the years the game has turned form the adults letting us win to it being even to the adults getting old and the kids growing up and now it’s just not fair. Think about it’s a bunch of college kids playing there 50 year old days in football. After the game all of my family comes back to my house. At this point you have to wait a long time for a shower because everyone wants to take one. The house also smells amazing because while we were playing football the moms have started working on the dinner. We pretty much just hang out until about 3 when the feast begins. We usually have anywhere for 15 – 20 people so there are a lot of food. We eat until we are full then clear the table and watch football. At this point people start to nap I guess they ant handle the triptaphane. A while later when everyone is still sure they cant eat anymore dissert is served. On average there is one dessert plate for everyone sitting at the table. This is where things get messy because all of the cakes and pies have to be cut and my family is very particular about how the cake and pie is cut. If for some reason a slice is not cut to some ones liking they will let you know and the rest of the family will be sure to let you know how badly you messed up. After dissert and the table is cleared almost everyone falls asleep esp if you are a male over the age of 40. its very funny to watch 4 or 5 of my uncles and grandpa sleep in a row sitting up on the couch. O well cant wait for this year is goi
