Kept meaning to answer this post, but always ran out of time.
This year for Thanksgiving, I'm going over to my dad's house for dinner. This is a first for me as I usually go over to my grandpa's house with my mom. My step-mom has never done a Thanksgiving before so we're experimenting. Plus she wants to do family photos to send out with the Christmas cards, so we're having her nephew-in-law do them.
Then the next day, I get to scare the crap out of my dad by making him go Christmas decorations shopping with me. He lost all of my holiday decorations (including all my sentimental tree decorations!) so he owes me new ones. I figure if I take him shopping the day after Thanksgiving he won't lose anything else that gets left at his house. (He's already lost a pair of sunglasses that I left over there accidently and my First Year of IBS book that I let him borrow! Plus my motorcycle got stolen when he left it in front of his house! Needless to say I'm not storing anything over there anymore. )
