A Thanksgiving to Remember
Thanksgiving is a time for reflection, gratitude, and gathering with loved ones around a table enjoying delicious foods and drinks. I don't remember much about Thanksgiving growing up. I don't think we made much of a big of it with family and friends, but because of this I always knew I wanted to make sure that the holidays were extra special for my kids and family while they were growing up.
One difference I would like to make with my family's Thanksgiving is turning the focus a little away from the food and drinks tht traditionally is what I made Thanksgiving about in the past. I want to focus on making memories.
I think one of the best ways to make memories is by playing games and other fun activities with friends and family. In the past I have hosted our family Christmas exchange nights with family and have turned them into fun games nights for the kids and adults.
Pinterest is one of my favorite sources to find holiday games ideas. Sometimes I take them straight from the source and other times I have to tweak them a little bit to make them more holiday themed.
Here are a few ideas I have used in the past:
Pin the Nose on Rudolph
Twisted Mummies with red and Green streamers
Pie Face- a classic favorite!
Don't forget the food and drinks, because of course we all know that's the icing on top of the cake of a party! Enjoy creating new memories and fun times! Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours!
