Halloween is over but before you start playing Christmas music and putting up your tree we still have another major holiday to be excited for: Thanksgiving. A holiday where we give thanks for what we have in our lives and who we share it with.
A time for families to come together and eat a wonderful meal prepared by wonderful family members with love. But, sometimes, you have those weird family members, like these.
1. The uncle that is literally just there for the food
2. The aunt that can't cook to save her life
She makes a dish every year, you know it is hers because it doesn't look edible. But you take some out of the kindness of your heart but will end up covering it with your napkin to throw away later because you couldn't even get the dog to eat it.
3. The cousin who gets mad when their favorite dish is gone before they've had some
They treat their favorite dish being gone as if the world is ending. If you took the last of it, you will definitely become enemy number one.
4. The aunt who doesn't want to help you cook
She shows up with a store bought dessert from Price Chopper and even asks you to cut it because she didn't bring a serving utensil for it.
5. Your little cousins in the kitchen helping you cook
Let's face it, they aren't helping.
6. The distant cousin who doesn't like anything you make
Picky, picky, picky.
7. Your brother who tells your secrets to your parents
8. Your moody grandpa who just yells at your grandma to cook
Let's face it. Grandpa has had to deal with Thanksgiving mode grandma for at least a week and he's tired of it.
9. Your sister who just acts like an idiot for attention
10. Your aunt who uses Thanksgiving dinner as an excuse to drink a lot of wine
Admit it, she uses every family function as an excuse to drink a lot of wine.
But at the end of the day they are your family, and no matter how crazy they are you are thankful for them.
