View submission: How long is your Thanksgiving celebration?

About three hours. We go to my parents house, visit a bit, eat, visit some more, and leave. There's really no point in being together any longer.

Thats about what we do.

People arrive between noon and one, with appetizers on the table and drinks (non alcoholic and alcoholic) available.

By 2pm, turkey and fixings are on the table so folks can help themselves.

A bit after 3, maybe 3:30, desserts are brought to the table after dinner dishes are cleared.

Between 4 and 4:30, guests leave.

I think what you’re describing is fairly typical but I don’t reallyknow. Would you mind giving a little more detail if that’s comfortable?
