Thread: Thanksgiving help

I know it is early still but I have been volunteered to host Thanksgiving this year for dh's side of the family. His mom said we have the biggest house so we need to have it here. I know they are thinking we are going to buy most everything but dh said last night we were not. His mom usually does it and she makes a list with things for everyone to bring, so everyone will bring 2-3 things. I told him we need to let them know now that we are not buying everything.

I have never done a Holiday before so I am not sure where to begin. I am thinking I need to make a list of all the food we are going to have and maybe have everyone pick what they want to bring?

What do you usually have for Thanksgiving in your family? I would like to do one or two things new so I am open to options.

Is there anything I can do now to make things a little easier?

Any advise you can give me would be great..Thank you!
