Every thanksgiving we go and eat with my family early that day then go to the .......... IN LAWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We usually stay over there ........ extra late....... and I'm usually wanting to leave by 6 or 7 and my wife likes to stay and visit until LATE.
I'm usually giving her the "look" by 7:30 cause I'm ready to go hunting. Heres a poll to see what you guys do .....

Was a tradition, spend the day visiting and then take cousins and brothers and all the kids that want to go, for a coonhunt. Usually the group numbers 8 or 10 people or so. Haven't done this the past couple years, we need to get back to it.
Good family fun.

Guess I am one of the lucky ones. We usually go to the inlaws for dinner and visit till dark then the brother in laws and I go hunting. We have a few spots we save just for this. Its a tradition and I enjoy it.

Hunting after any family gathering is a tradition here. Last night after dinner I took my 5 year old son, my 12 year old step-son, my 16 year old brother, and one of his friends from school. The boys had a wonderful time, and the dogs did a great job. Can't ask for more than that.
