would like to start a special family tradition for Thanksgiving ?
my sisters and i grew up in different homes.my husband and i moved away when we were first married .this will be our first Thanksgiving with both his family and my sisters and their families .they are all coming to our home this yr .i would love to have something for us all to do together.kind of bring our 2 families together …i was thinking i could ask everyone to help put up and decorate our tree .any other ideas ?
How about a ‘giving basket’ where everyone brings a non-perishable food item that can then be donated to your local Food Bank? Your idea of the tree thing is good, but go one step further and have each family bring a special ornament for the tree. When you take the tree down, make sure you put those ornaments in a special place and bring them again next year to whoever is hosting Thanksgiving to put on That tree, and to add any others that might become appropriate (say for a new member, etc.)
