My husband grew up very poor and always wondered why Santa gave other kids nice gifts and he got socks. Halloween on the other hand, was the great equalizer. It didn't matter if you were rich or poor, everyone got the same candy. Halloween is still his favorite holiday.
Brandon's input today is fire. Nice.
Just the fact that dry ass turkey is in the title of this video made my day 😂😂😂
Before a few years ago, I would agree that Christmas was the best and couldn’t wait to decorate, make cookies, candies and more. Now, lights have dimmed and joy is gone. Iam happy for those that still can find that joy.
I just knew Travis was going to say Jack Stack had the best carrot cake. It is the best!
I'm here because because I like bonuses & extras. Thanksgiving is fun as usually the expectations are all about the food not presents. I like a Thanksgiving where everyone brings a dish. The expectations are on everyone. Christmas is about both the food and presents( added stress, stress compounded). But I love it.
I'm with Jason on the Green Bean casserole and no Mac and cheese on Thanksgiving!!
Ok but a cinnamon apple pie with vanilla bean ice cream is so good!
Thanksgiving is the best holiday of them all! You don't have to buy any gifts, and all you do is eat food, watch football, and be with your friends and family!
We love you Jason, Kylie and girls and Travis and Taylor and wonderful parents of all, Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
