Giving Thanks


Holly had the cutiest idea for Thanksgiving this year.  She put a few twigs in a vase and then gave each of us a round piece of paper and asked us to write what we are thankful for.  Then we hung each of the papers on the twigs and used it as our centerpiece.  There were many things to be thankful for this year.  Our family has truly been blessed.  Then she brought over a little craft project for each of the kids to make while we finished getting dinner ready.  I love the look I Gavins face in this picture!!  We spent our day eating a turkey dinner with all the trimmings and then that evening we enjoyed a pie bar with lots of yummy pies to eat.  I think Thanksgiving is my favorite of all the holidays...mainly because it's just about being together as a family...no commercialism...no gifts...just love of family.

I truly missed being at home for Thanksgiving this year. It wasn't the same at all :(
