Twenty four of us sat down to celebrate Thanksgiving at Peppers in-laws. I'm always reminded of my childhood when I join them. With no dishwasher we scurry to do dishes the old fashioned way. Many of the matriarch's dishes are similar to my moms, as well as her floor and cupboard knobs.
It's comfortable with constant giggles and chatter as eight of the ten kids kibitz back and forth catching up!
Everyone doted on the five day old nephew. Bryans sisters first child. Everyone inquired when his brothers wife would have their fifth, due in a few weeks.
It's hard to say how long these large gatherings will last as families grow and parents age.
I can think of nothing better to be thankful for than this wonderful large family who include us with so much love! And these two who brought us all together!
