Step 1: Make all the delicious family Thanksgiving recipes including: the main course - turkey, mashed potatoes, corn, gravy, cranberry sauce (imported), rolls, green bean casserole, etc.
Step 2: Make the precious, famous Caseystuffing.
Step 3: Realize that you are out of sage and forgot that they sell sweet potatoes in a couple of stores so send your husband out in the freezing fog on his scooter to find them.
Step 4: Wash, peel and cook fresh, white sweet potatoes.
Step 5: Enlist the help of your youngest son and frantically mop the living room and clean at least one bathroom while stuffing anything loose into the bedroom.
Step 6: Take freshly butchered turkey out of plastic bag and prep it for the oven.
Step 7: Pumpkin pie time!
Step 8: Set the table.
Step 9: Remove deliciousness from the oven.
Step 10: Walk down to the school to get Jacob and Haven and have them put their coats and scarves and backpacks away and wash their hands.
Step 11: Carve turkey. I'm horrible at this. But it is DELICIOUS.
Step 12: Go around and share what you're grateful for. Eat and laugh and take a group picture.
Step 13: After pie and coffee, play PIT!
