I would tell them I wasn't prepared to have them over a day early, and suggest a nice local hotel where they can relax from their trip. Make plans for dinner together Wed night if appropriate.
Tell them you'll have coffee in the morning Thursday but that you will be very busy with the meal preparations and getting ready for other guests that you won't be available to entertain them. Suggest some free or cheap local attractions they might like to visit during the day.
Add that if they would like to come over early in the afternoon you'd be happy to have their help in cleaning and getting ready for dinner.
This is all more or less the truth, just sugar coated.Use it up, Wear it out,
Make it do, Or do without. ~unknown

Well it is all settled
I called my brother - who has a 6 hour drive -
that I had told them Thursday is better a month ago
With giving me a little guilt that it was decided they are staying at a hotel for 1 night and will be over at noon - he wanted to come at 9am on Thanksgiving but I said noon was better.
Thanks for helping me with my family dilemma
You are the best
