Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you reading this blog. I hope your holiday is filled with joy, friends and family.

We are very blessed to be able to have Thanksgiving with my mother this year. If you have read my previous blogs she was in the hospital for about 4 1/2 months during spring and summer. We feared for her life on two occasions during that time. So it is great to be able to spend this day with her at home.

We will also be spending time with my dad and Suzi and are greatful for that. For those who we can't be with, we are thinking of you today as well.

In preparation for the holiday, the boys and I have been working on various crafts to liven up the house. We have a silly turkey bread basket, Thanksgiving tree, pinecone turkeys, turkey terra cotta pots and pilgrim and Indian hats. Of all the crafts the kids' favorite were and still are the pinecone turkeys. How can you go wrong with hand picked pinecones, pipe cleaners, googly eyes, pompoms, construction paper and glue?
