What are you making? Either an entire meal or something to bring. I have no idea what to make if we go to H's parents' because they make very different things than I've ever had.
Where are you going? I really have no idea. Either to H's parents' house or everyone is coming here. No one will make a decision.
Who will you be spending it with? Most likely H's family and then my mom and I will be driving to SLC that evening to do Black Friday shopping with my aunt and grandma.
What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving? Family time and H will finally let me start talking about Christmas without getting grumpy at me.

Thanksgiving really does nothing with me & I wish this was my families year so we would be 2 minutes from home & not 2 1/2 hours away.

Who will you be spending it with? H (he's taking the day off yay!!!) and our whole family
What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving? besides being together, not having to work for a few days and eating all that delicious food. thanksgiving dinner is my favorite!
What are you making? Since H and I will be abroad for Thanksgiving this year (so sad!) I will be making some sort of nice meal for the two of us. It probably won't be the "traditional" turkey and mashed potatoes and all that because that would be wayy too much work and food for the two of us. But we'll probably splurge and get some nice, big steaks or something!
Where are you going? We will be staying in our little apartment in Sweden.
Who will you be spending it with? Just my H.
What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving? Normally, I would have to say spending time with my extended family and stuffing my face with homemade pumpkin pie. But this year since I won't be able to do either of those things (so sad again!), I'll say that my favorite part of this year's Thanksgiving will be cooking my first full Thanksgiving dinner. Even if it won't be a feast, I'll still be cooking it.
What are you making?
Nothing!!! Mom is cooking, but I sure will be eating alot! Nothing like an Italian 5 course meal!!!!

What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving?
The food!

This year, probably just some deserts. I usually make a dip and a casserole, then help with the entire meal at my family's... but we won't be there this year.
Where are you going?
Arkansas with H's dad's side of the family. I'm not really happy about it, but I've put my big girl panties on (most of you probably know how I feel about H's douche... I mean dad). The Sunday before we will be a H's grandma's for his mom's side Thanksgiving.
IWho will you be spending it with?
H, FIL, and about 40 other people from H's dad's side. No, I'm not exaggerating. I'm actually probably estimating on the low side.
What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving?
Usually, it's relaxing with my family over the long weekend. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday... all of the family and fun, but none of the stress that Christmas brings. This year I will be spending Thanksgiving away from my family for the first time ever in my entire 32 years of life. And I'm pregnant, so I'm positive I'll cry at some point.

What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving? relaxing, watching football and movies, seeing family and friends. But since we won't be home this year, it will be really low key with just H and I.What are you making? Well me and the hubbs is hosting Thanksgiving again this year, so we are making mainly everything. Turkey, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, and a veggie trey, stuffing, and gravy. Then the little things that are left family will bring.
Where are you going? On Thanksgiving, the only place we will probably go is our own house. But that weekend probably my Uncles for my side of the family's get together. And not sure yet about the hubbys side, they are last minute people hehe.
Who will you be spending it with? On Thanksgiving we will spend it with my parents, brother and his girlfriend more then likely. As well as his parents, i'd say his step-brothers but doubt it, and possibly our grandparents. But that weekend we will spend it will all of my moms side of the family.
What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving? The food, hanging with family. Having a day to sleep in (even though I dont) Watching the Macy's parade, and getting to start decorating for Christmas the day after
