We have never pondered where we were going to spend Thanksgiving. Ever since we bought this house we knew we were going to host Thanksgiving. We had planned on inviting our family over and it was going to be a splendid time; however, due to some unforeseen happenings it looks like our family will be unable to attend. I will admit that I am a little bit saddened by this fact but at the same time understand completely. So now what are we going to do? R has already volunteered to work Thanksgiving. So it isn't like we can just change our plans. Plus we have already invited a few friends to come. So I have decided we are going to have a Misfit Thanksgiving. What is a Misfit Thanksgiving? I'm glad you asked. It is a Thanksgiving for people who either don't have a family, don't have family close,or simply don't like their family or a number of other sceneries. The last Thanksgiving that R and me hosted was in Virginia and this is exactly what it was like. However, at that time we didn't call it a Misfit Thanksgiving but that is pretty much what it was. We invited several guys from R's ship to the apartment and we cooked a turkey and ham with all the sides. We asked each guy to try to bring something and had a great time. It is actually one of the most memorable Thanksgivings I have ever had. So that is what we are going to do this year. We will be having it on Saturday and not on the traditional Thursday due to R's working but if you are in town and would like to join us. Facebook me and I will give you the details. Happy Thanksgiving to all you misfits!!!!
