When my children were small, we always had a big dinner (we called it) after church.  I loved the chicken dinners with all the trimmings.  Now, its church and then traveling most of the time about 90 miles to have our big meal.  My husband loves to drive!

no but I would love to start one day. It would be great to have that tradition for my grandchildren some day whenever I have them.

I live by myself, so usually I cook enough on Saturday so I will not have to cook on Sunday.  My grandmother lived with me for awhile and that is what she would do so I got in the habit of doing the same.

We used to have a similar thing, though your's it a bit more idealic than mine.  We would go over to see my grandpa and he would just sorta sit in his chair and watch his shows while we ate dinner at the table.  I would've preferred to actually have spent time with him but after losing his wife and everything, I think he wasn't really interested in grandkids and such.

Used too when my grandparents were alive, And some when mother was here. Now we go out for lunch after church, then go out too see my day and take him several meals frozen for the week. He enjoys that.

We like to have a big Sunday dinner but getting everyone in one place is often impossible. I do a lot of cooking on Sundays though, I like to get somethings prepped and precooked for the week ahead.

hm actually my mother does ...didnt realize she still did that until I thought about it just now.
The difference is that when I was younger on sundays, everyone would eat at the table and now on sundays everyone just takes their food and go soit doesnt really seems like a big sunday dinner anymore.

It's depend on the day.  We offend go out to eat on Sunday, because after tire time of work on week days we want to enjoy out to eat.

In our home, the Sunday dinners are a little special and elaborate. We spend time talking about family and stuff, and I always look forward to Sunday dinners.

There is no designated day to eat at home, but for Sundays I rotate on either cooking or going out to eat with family. The weekends of course has a greater likelihood to eat with extended family too, which is a treat even though I see many family members so often.

We didn't always have big Sunday dinners, but we often had big dinners with my grandparents.  Both my grandmother and great-grandmother were quite the cooks.  It was great having everyone sit around the big tables.  I miss them every day.

Many years ago I used to cook a big Sunday dinner but living by myself I don't do that anymore, just eat the same as any other day - usually soup or sandwich.
