Our Thanksgiving was a personal and small one, one that I have been wanting and yearning to do for years now. Typically every year we go to my MIL's for dinner and dessert and this year I wanted to do it all on my own with my little family! Lots of work preparing and baking all day, but totally worth the quiteness and less stress.
Above pic: dinner table set, caleb and I went for a nature walk and collected twigs and branches to create a "thankful tree", which is a tree with tags hung from it with words and things that you are thankful for. Example: God, family, health etc. Our turkey cooked perfectly, 12 pounds and tons of left overs. My plate on right, was STUFFED! Ahh the way it should be on Thanksgiving...
Caleb was taking a break on his scooter on the way to a trail we walked down for the twigs

Your plate looks delish! It sounds like a great, quiet Thanksgiving, and the Thankful Tree sounds awesome. Love that underwater sub, by the way.
ReplyDeleteI know you are absolutely swamped with orders, so congrats on hiring help. That's pretty exciting! You can use the help, I am sure, with all these holiday orders rushing in! You are still the one to do the stamping, though, right?
