Our families live in the same city so we've combined in the past, but have extended family in town on both sides this year, so will be hitting both. One meal at 3pm, one at 5:30pm.

My family, then in-laws, then we'll host the Sunday after to bring both families together. Growing up it was 2-3 each year...the pros (cons?) of having families live close by :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-thanksgiving-meals-do-you-eat-per-year#post-2364422 Fri, 20 Nov 2015 07:40:14 +0000 regberadaisy 2364422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Technically, 2. Thanksgiving and potluck at work. BUT. I love turkey and we routinely do the full thanksgiving smorgasbord a few times a year. :P At least 4x a year. I've been known to ask for turkey for my birthday in May. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-thanksgiving-meals-do-you-eat-per-year#post-2364383 Fri, 20 Nov 2015 06:01:00 +0000 BandDmommy 2364383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just one </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-thanksgiving-meals-do-you-eat-per-year#post-2364382 Fri, 20 Nov 2015 05:49:27 +0000 lamariniere 2364382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just one this year, with all of my family.

DH bff's followed by MIL. Talk about stuffed. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-thanksgiving-meals-do-you-eat-per-year#post-2364329 Fri, 20 Nov 2015 01:21:29 +0000 hellobeeboston 2364329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do one, but had a few years I got together with a group of high school friends for a "Friendsgiving". We sorta stopped the last few years. Harder now that most of us have 2 kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-thanksgiving-meals-do-you-eat-per-year#post-2364299 Fri, 20 Nov 2015 00:09:11 +0000 Corduroy 2364299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Count anything that is celebrated as Thanksgiving, turkey need not be consumed. Leftovers would not be included in the count unless you do a separate left over gathering. </p> <p>I'm eating three Thanksgiving meals this year: Friendsgiving last weekend, work Thanksgiving yesterday, and hosting on the day of. I'm glad we don't split the day between multiple families. I'm already feeling like it's excessive. </p>
