Thanksgiving In The Garage
« on: November 28, 2013, 07:34:07 PM »
What do you do when your house is too small to fit everyone at the same table for Thanksgiving?  Move it out to the garage :)  Four generations, 20 of us sat down for Thanksgiving dinner out in the garage next to the 33.  All had a great time including my granddaughter who loves sitting in "Pepere's Hot Rod".  Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!
Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

Good looking family having a feast ain't that what it's all about? We had about 20 or so at one of my daughters home, and yes we were crowded.

That's really cool. Your granddaughter looks like she's having a ball behind the wheel of the 33. I'll bet being out with the car offered you plenty of opportunity for show and tell and bragging. :-*

Oh yeah I got to show it off to some of my relatives that I only see occasionally.  Had lots of good comments and compliments.  I had to sit in the passenger seat while my granddaughter took me for a "ride"!  It was a fun get together.

Looks like fun. Makes everything a little more relaxed. I have done the same thing, only it was when I got married. We got married in the backyard, we set up tables in the yard and used the shop as a serving area. It was great!
