Often during the holidays we have family from afar come and stay with us for a few days over the season. This year our guests changed things up a little and visited us over Thanksgiving. Before preparing for guests, I always feel a little stressed out, but after I come up with a plan for meals and prepare to tackle the cleaning (with three boys, I leave this to the last possible day) I feel a little better.
