This Thanksgiving was one that brought a new and exciting challenge for me that every man seems to dread. I was blessed with the opportunity of going to meet some of my girlfriend's extended family for the first time in Pennsylvania. It brought a nervous anticipation that I hadn't experienced in a long time and I was unsure of what was to come.
With all of the excitement that comes from a family gathering during the Thanksgiving holiday, it was hard to find time to relax and catch my breath. Many family members that I had never met before were asking questions about my life and the direction it was headed.
The meal was delicious and the dessert was perfect, and the barrage of family questions and introductions was over. It was a relief to know that I was accepted and that now I could take part in some of the family traditions, such as "black friday" shopping and thanksgiving day football.
