Over turkey day that is? I will be up at 2 am Thursday putting my 19 lb ham on the smoker where it will stay for @ 6 hours. Once that is done I will pull it, wrap it, shove it in a cooler covered with hot towles and drive 2 hours to the inlaws. We will do alot of eating and drinking and watching football, and then the brothers-inlaw and I will hit the farms for some long tailed ground birds. The evenings will be filled with more eating and drinking and probably some card games and then it's back outside for coyote calling.

It should be a good holiday weekend all in all. What yall got goin on?

Dinner is at the house this year. Im putting on National Lampoons Christmas, followed by mixed nuts.

Im sure we will break out the guitars and play a little. General conversation beyond that.

For dinner, we have two 14lb birds and one big ham. Home made stuffing, fresh Cranberries, etc. Everyone is suppose to bring food so chance are I will need new pants on Friday.

If this cold is gone, I'll be heading out to the woods trying to kill a deer. then back here where I'll be greeted by the army of a family we have (will be at least 40 other people here from my moms side of the family, and thats not even half of them:eek:) football starts at noon...dinner is at whatever time they are done cooking, probably around 4...we sometimes head outside and have a friendly game of tackle/touch football...but we are getting a little old and our bodies a hurting for a week after :D:o then back in to hang out and play some cards.

Well I will go hunting that morning. :):)

Come home and gather the wife and kid...or maybe kids:o and head to my dads grandmas for lunch. Eat and visit with everyone.

Then for dinner we will head to my wife's mothers to eat and visit some more.

In between lunch and dinner I will need to see my mom's side of the family too...More food and visiting.

So most of my day is running around....:rolleyes:

Of course we are expecting that kid any time now so....we could be in the hospital....:eek::eek::cool::cool: Sure hope he waits till after the holidays but who knows. :D:D:D

Already smoked a couple turkeys just yesterday. Will likely be hunting Thanksgiving day morning. Will heat the turkeys and cook stuffing and everything else to go with the meal late in the morning when I get in. We usually eat between 1 and 2 on Thanksgiving day. Wife has to work Friday, but will probably hunt that afternoon and one of the two of us will be out all weekend and will get my oldest daughter out some too.

Well my folks just built a new house up where we hunt so we are going to have thanksgiving in it for the first time. I think im going to try to sneek in some muskie fishing if its not real windy in the morning. Then hopefully help my mother drag a deer out of the woods( its gun season here in WI). :) Watch the Packers destroy the Lions, fill my face and pass out...... then split firewood after my nap! (anyone wanna help?)
