addgrey (and everyone else): I looked up reviews for the Lake House restaurant, they look good overall. I cancelled Lovell's (didn't realize it was $55/person!) and made one at Lake House. The restaurant is only about 4 miles from RTC. http://www.restaurant.com/lake-house-lake-bluff-reviews-pid=161446#top
Again...big kudos to you ladies making a home cooked Thanksgiving meal!! YOU ALL ROCK!! My SR (and our adopted SR) will have to settle for homemade caramels, tiger butter, and s'mores bark...the only things I figure will travel well, in a truck, from Austin to Illinois :) That is IF I hide it well enough from her daddy and little brother!!

The Marriotts in the area are:
Springhill Suites, Residence Inn, Courtyard....and yes, they are great hotels! We stayed at Residence and really liked it.

CatMom509-WOW that is a lot of info. How you even remembered all that to share is unbelievable.
regarding having Sarge take your daughter that was just to save you time? Is it very traffic congested since everybody is taking their child back?

On the rooms with kitchenettes, please contact your hotel to make sure there is an OVEN available if you want to actually tackle a turkey!!

Honeybeequeen- ok will def look into that.
LalaRibbonQueen- do you have suggestions of which ones we should stay away from? horror stories is not a word I want associated with a hotel I might be booking. I really wanted a suite so he could have his own PRIVATE comfortable bed.

Make sure you check out the reviews of the hotel you are staying at. There are some with very bad reviews and we have heard some horror stories. We want you all to be safe and comfortable.
