Your Four-Point Plan For Holiday Hosting Success
Do Your Homework
Endure 14 hours of labor? Check. Nurse throughout the night, forgoing months of sleep? Check, check. Serve a Thanksgiving meal for your family — with everything just the way everyone loves it? Help!
Let’s face it: This task can be daunting, even after you’ve mastered motherhood, the toughest job around. After all, how do you get the bird on the table, juicy and piping hot, before the candied yams and green bean casserole go stone cold? Rest easy. We talked to moms to find out how they worked though the hiccups of hosting their first Thanksgiving to help yours go smoothly.
Sure, hosting means you don’t have to travel, but it also means you’ll probably have some houseguests. That can be great (think extra sets of hands to hold the baby), but it also means getting your house ready. One month before Thanksgiving, LaShaune Stitt-Clemons, of the Bronx, New York, begins tackling tasks: “I start working on a color scheme for the table, the guest list, and the number of courses I’ll serve.” You might need to dig out a good tablecloth from storage. As the mother of four kids (Darren Jr., 16, Alexis, 5, Taryn, 21 months, and Tariq, 3 months), this mom has learned that hosting overnight guests properly requires advance thought. “Start working on sleeping arrangements no less than three weeks before the big event,” Stitt-Clemons says. “This helps you figure out what you don’t have enough of — such as towels, linens, and extra toothbrushes — and you can determine if you have enough dishes, glasses, and serving trays.”
Take Sides
“You’re a new mom with lots to do, so this is not the time to prove that you’re Betty Crocker,” says Sandy Jones, coauthor of Great Expectations: Baby’s First Year (Sterling), who is also a grandmother. “Make it as easy as you can.” That’s why Camille Bodnar, of Pittsburgh, hosts a potluck. “I do the turkey and stuffing with my mother’s help, and I ask my guests to bring something specific,” says the mom to Dominic, 1. “We also use Crock-Pots for items like the green bean casserole so we can free up some room in the oven. So far, each year has been a huge success!”
One Big, Happy Family
Many people shuttle between both sides of their family at the holidays, which can be a drag. The year her first son was born, Lisa Shenton, of Farmington Hills, Michigan, put an end to that exhausting tradition: “We were really tired of eating two turkey dinners, so we invited both sides of the family and planned a dinner for 20!” says the mother to Cole, 3, and Luke, 1. To make it work despite having only one oven, Shenton and her husband invested in a turkey fryer: “We fry one turkey and bake the other.” Since she asks each person to bring something, “we never feel overwhelmed, and we don’t have to worry about everything coming out of the oven at the same time or about overcrowding the oven. It makes the day a treat for everyone!”
Visualize Success
For Fern Lehmann, of Richmond, a play-by-play plan is key to taking stress out of the holiday. What works for this mother of four boys — Brad, 24, Andrew, 19, Eric, 17, and Benjamin, 11 months — is to “sit down and write a menu of everything I plan to serve.” Next to each item, Lehmann notes who will prepare it. Then she makes her grocery list according to the menu. “Write on your calendar which days you are going to do each task,” she says. For example, if she’s serving dishes that can be prepared in advance, she notes when she’ll make them. “You can also jot down when you plan to clean, shop, and decorate your home,” she says. “Writing it down helps you visualize your schedule and plan for anything you might have otherwise forgotten.”

The True Meaning of Thanksgiving
Child’s Play
Benjamin Aha, 4, may not fully understand why his family is spending Thanksgiving at the Ronald McDonald House in Camden, New Jersey. But the little volunteer fills an important role: helping make sure the sick children who are staying there are having a good time. “Ben is a really compassionate boy,” says his mother, Maureen. “He knows if people aren’t feeling well or need an extra boost.”
The Ronald McDonald houses serve as a temporary home for families of seriously ill children who are being treated at a nearby hospital. Holidays can be particularly difficult, so volunteers like Ben and his family try to create as normal an atmosphere as possible. “Most people in this situation are consumed by their child’s illness, and a holiday meal provides a welcome distraction,” says Maureen, a school-benefits assistant who has volunteered here for ten years. She got involved through her mother, Judi Godor, who has devoted one weekend a month for the past 17 years to the Ronald McDonald House. Maureen’s husband, Chris, who works in the technology field, and sons Ben and baby Jeffrey often come along. Maureen knows her children are too young to understand why they’re there. But she believes that including them will help shape their values.”Children are open to all kinds of experiences,” she says. “If you instill the idea of volunteering early on, they’ll want to take some time out to help others when they’re older.”
Happy Thanksgiving
