Her caption reflected her gratitude and love for her family: “Family, football, and celebrated Thanksgiving with my kids and grandkids today #blessed #godisgreat.” The sentiment underscored her ability to adapt to her son’s career while maintaining strong family ties.
Adjusting Family Traditions Around NFL Demands
Before the late celebration, Randi had shared a nostalgic post reflecting on a family tradition. She posted a handwritten Thanksgiving note from 2007 by her late mother, Debbie Bates Martin, expressing the deep family connection that runs through the Mahomes household. She also included a photo of a gathering with her father, Randy Martin, who has been battling illness, emphasizing the importance of cherishing family moments.
While the Mahomes family came together for Thanksgiving, Patrick was notably absent from the earlier gathering due to his NFL obligations. He was in the midst of preparing for a Black Friday game against the Raiders, which required him to remain focused on the task at hand. Randi, understanding the demands of his schedule, adjusted their plans to celebrate once Patrick was available.
