Sarah:

That food that Alan cooked looked amazing!!

[unmeasuredinstances]

And amazing it was.....just delicious!

[fugazi0311]

No kidding. I wanted to have some.

[JLRMMH72]

Perhaps when TransGiving welcomes allies my partner and I will join you all - what an honor it would be!

XO

Jenn

[unmeasuredinstances]

Jenn!!! Of course we welcome allies!! In fact, several of the people there were totally unconnected to anything trans other then, well, simply being friends. And oh my, I would LOVE for you to come, so pencil in next year and plan on it! xoxo Sarah

It looks like you all had a wonderful time....really enjoyed the footage.

[unmeasuredinstances]

We absolutely DID have a wonderful time....thanks!!!

Sarah: A Transgiving that the pilgrims would envy! Much fun had by all.

[unmeasuredinstances]

A beautiful way to put it....yes, I think we would have been the envy!

[GenieP]

P.S. Love the house...what I could see of it. However, not in love with the snow I could see outside through your windows. I am such a California girl...I do windows, but I don't do snow. My youth in the Great Plains wore me out on cold snowy winters. I hope you put the camera down long enough to feast yourself.

[gothique11]

hopefully beth and I will be there next year. :)

We're doing our own trans-mas thingy here, just locally (well, I guess beth is not-so-local, but we accept her as our own)... but beth thinks we should do it for all over and get other youtubers over. My apartment is kinda small, but we have fun anyway.

[unmeasuredinstances]

Oh, it would be GREAT to have you both next year!!! Yay! And while I know what you mean by having a small space, there is something wonderful about bursting at the seams with love and company. In any case, have a wonderful wonderful holiday.

[yankeerose63]

It looks like you've had a wonderful time! xx

[unmeasuredinstances]

That we did, that we did!

[amginena]

I have never encountered anything that better captures the spirit of the holiday. Thanks for sharing this delightful video.

[unmeasuredinstances]

You are SO welcome.

[blackflower75]

Wow what a lush video !

[unmeasuredinstances]

Aw, thanks!!!

[GMPNY]

When something wonderful comes together it REALLY comes together. What a wonderful time and thankyou so much Sarah for sharing the video of it all. What a wonderful time around the table, reminded me of when I was little and so many came to feast with us :-)

[unmeasuredinstances]

And thank you Gail for so much as well.

[winterwinwin]

I wish I could have come out there to spend time with you guys. :) Looks like you had a beautiful time, honey. I'd love to meet you all in person someday. :) /big hugs/ Much love, hon.

[unmeasuredinstances]

Winter, consider this an early invite for next year!! Truly.....this was just the beginning :)

[ClosetCaseLez]

I wish my Thanksgiving was that cool and friend filled!!

[unmeasuredinstances]

Mmmmmmm......what you doing next year?

[ynotbegoodtoall]

what a terrific video,

[unmeasuredinstances]

Thanks!

[jonboy002]

Warm & wonderful!

[unmeasuredinstances]

That DOES seem to sum it up!

[JLRMMH72]

We should all be so lucky to have such an amazing family to go home to! I am thrilled you all had a wonderful time! XO Jenn

[unmeasuredinstances]

Never too early to make plans for next year's TransGiving!! (hint, hint)

I hope you had a wonderful holiday as well.

[RanmaruX]

I can only echo everyone else. This looks like a perfect way to spend thanksgiving :)

[unmeasuredinstances]

I don't think it could get much better, but we will try next year!

[1948mmm]

Warmth incarnate.......

[unmeasuredinstances]

Look who's talking :)

[Widdledoo]

That looks so nice.

[unmeasuredinstances]

It was even nicer then nice :)

[heythrdelilah91]

This looks like so much fun!!!

And I like how it got deathly silent when the food entered the video.

[unmeasuredinstances]

Thanks Lilah!

[aire420]

that is so cool that what it should be a bout having fun with the ones you love. stay safe.

[unmeasuredinstances]

Thanksgiving....now forever renamed TransGiving for us :).....is by far my favorite holiday. A perfect mix of celebration, friends, and family.

[Kinga1Kosinska]

Wonderful video!The food looks damn good haha.

[unmeasuredinstances]

The food was amazing and there was a ton of it....far more then you can see in any one shot. Put it this way, it took more than a week to just get through the leftovers.

[NaomiClareNL]

An impressive collection of friends and pans!

That was a great idea, transgiving.

[unmeasuredinstances]

Well, you know, buy the pans and the friends will come :)

More seriously, we feel blessed in knowing all these wonderful folks.

[barstowmama]

Looked like a wonderful day with wonderful people! Happy Holidays to you and yours! :-)

[unmeasuredinstances]

And my hope that you are headed towards a wonderful holiday season as well.

[nicanicabad]

beautiful!

[unmeasuredinstances]

Thank you. Hope you are doing well.

[windysky4u]

What a wonderful get together. I was most impress that you had someone as faraway from Holland. What a great Transgiven diner..Awesome-Lovely...... :)

Michele

[unmeasuredinstances]

I know, Rickie was amazing....all the way from Holland!! Wow....even I can't believe it and I was there!

[deftikoes]

This is great! Very nice to see how everyone becomes quiet when eating...it's obviously delicious. And the atmosphere is a very warmhearted one. Beautiful!

[unmeasuredinstances]

It was incredibly warm hearted....and at least one large part of that was the love and spirit Rickie brought with her.

[Jennylovemiller]

This is so awesome, everybody gets together and Celebrates, you all are awesome :)

[unmeasuredinstances]

Thanks for thinking so! We hope these catch on and there are TransGivings everywhere!

[FtmShifty]

[Hugs you]

[unmeasuredinstances]

Hugging you right back.

[darkwitchtori]

Your videos always give me the warmest feelings. The world seems better just knowing someone that sweet is in it.

[unmeasuredinstances]

Oh, there was a lot of sweetness to go around that day.....a lot of warmth and love.

[LindsayStone]

you guys looked like you had a great time for sure

[unmeasuredinstances]

We DID have a great time.....and at least for those few days, all differences were set aside, and all the labels cast away. We became just a family....as dysfunctional as any other and just as full of love.

[LindsayStone]

thanks great... yeah and it's good to realize we can still be family even with different views

[roseblossoms00]

aww wow how amazing

[unmeasuredinstances]

It was amazing.....I sometimes need to watch this just to remember it was real.

[torigirl35]

sarah&allen...i cried all the way through. the love was tangible! thanks for sharing this beautiful occasion. ((hugs))

*tori*

[unmeasuredinstances]

Our pleasure Tori.....truly our pleasure.

[carsonrader]

[unmeasuredinstances]

Says the lovely Carson :)

Hoping you are well and have shaken those winter blahs away.

[jellybean4501]

It looks like you all had such a wonderful time! Nothing better than good food and good friends!

[unmeasuredinstances]

Nope, nothing better.....I agree!
