Looking Forward to the Holiday Season



Hi everyone,

Just trying to get a perspective on everyone's plans for the holidays....as our Hamilton family continues to grow, it becomes more difficult for the holiday season. I believe that everyone is scheduled our traditional Thanksgiving (Saturday after Turkey day, so this year it will fall on Nov 29th).

In planning for this, I have booked our family 4 hotel rooms..with the hopes of canceling them and finding room somewhere.....I looked into renting RV's for the weekend and it isn't that much less expensive than a hotel, and then you have to move them, etc....but, there is the positive side of not having to miss out on the family action in the morning and later int he evening...Does everyone want to do Thanksgiving at Grandpa's?

We hope to get Dad's other side rented out soon, so there isn't as much room as there used to be in Corvallis.

How about Christmas? And what days does everyone have off for Christmas? I assume we should choose either from Dec. 27th or the 3rd of Jan.

Hopefully you will all respond and we can get the ball rolling....
