How funny is it that we celebrate Thanksgiving with a big "feast" and so we are giving thanks and we are thank-full... I think I need to stop over thinking these things... Since Sam started school he has been referring to Thanksgiving dinner as a feast. That seems much more festive, I think we will go with that. And by the way we were thank-full, and we were festive, it was a great day.
It has been several years since I hosted Thanksgiving, I am usually buried beneath an avalanche of Christmas decorations, getting ready for the next weekend's open house. And it seems wrong somehow to celebrate Thanksgiving with Christmas decorations everywhere. It was a great change of pace and now that I know I can do it, I will be happy to let my sister Toni have it back...
Here are the turkeys that showed up..
