Thanksgiving -- It's here!
Our Menu -- Tell me if you want to make changes.
It looks like we will have 19 folks present: Mary, Dennis, Karen, Benjie, Colt, Ashley H., Meagan, Linda, Mike, Steven, Ashley F., Chuck, Tee, Ann, Brad, Layton, Christi, Lilly, & Mauricio. (Katie will stop by to fix 2 to-go plates.) That means that we need food for 21, unless Brad brings a guest or Mike's parents come.
Event Information
Lunch/Dinner
I'm bringing the kids' table from Opelika for Colt, Mauricio, Lilly, & Layton. It has benches. I have to bring the white table from M&D's kitchen to seat 6. Linda has to get 6 chairs for that table. Linda's dining table seats 6. Her counter seats 3 & that makes 19. Do we need a folding card table & chairs? I feel that we do because the counter will be full of food. We really need to know about those last 3, Ann & Linda.

I don't think that Dennis & Mary should pay for any of this, so let's not charge on their card. I've talked to most of you about this menu, but we can change anything. Love my family.
