[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My nuclear family (4 kids, 2 parents )+ all the spouses and kids found it a lot easier to move our Thanksgiving to the second Saturday in November. Flights were cheaper, highways weren't crowded, it was much easier to travel, and you could even take off Friday or Monday from work if you needed to because it wasn't "the holiday season". We were able to have a large, proper family gathering, with all the trimmings, and still had a couple weeks to recover if we needed to travel to celebrate with our spouses family. I used to spend 10 hours driving from DC to upstate NY on Thanksgiving Wednesday with screaming kids (including rest stops and all the backup) until we started this tradition. Now, the trip can take just 6 hours. [/quote] I love this. So much sanity. So much logic. Someday I hope I can do the same.[/quote]
