[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 703016, member: 1550"] Long ago I decided not to make my kids run like headless chickens on any holidays. I love the holidays but I am not one bit about celebrating on that day and no other. So this is how we deal with holidays to make them fun and guarantee we see everyone we love. I love how it turns out....so peaceful and fun and no stress. Here so go trying to explain. This weekend we are going to Chicago to have our first family Thanksgiving there and Princess is a chef. Yum When we get back to Wisconsin we will have a second Thanksgiving on Saturday after Thanksgiving for just Wisconsin family. It always seems to me like our holidays are more personal and peaceful. We have no problem letting the other side have the actual day because the exact day is unimportant to us It's about the family. We do the same for Christmas only make sure everyone goes to Chicago on that holiday. My husband and Sonic, who now has a SUnday job will skip our Chicago Thsnksgiving (hub is watching the pets) but both will be there for our Wisconsin Thanksgiving. And Princess and baby who we ARE going will see in Chicago can't come to Wisconsin with baby. So to celebrate Thanksgiving with all my loved ones, I do it twice only not exactly on Thanksgiving. I don't care a bit. Its a win for everyone on both sides of the family and our kids and pets lol. [/QUOTE]
