Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a GREAT Thanksgiving day. We have truly so much to be thankful for this year. We had a great time sharing around the table and thinking back over how much God has blessed us this year. Our meal was delicious - we did a turkey (which was brined - a new thing for me) and a honey baked ham (ALWAYS so good!). I think Mom counted 9 different side dishes - talk about yummy!!!

Sorry about the glare - here's a picture of our completed "thankfulness" turkey. The original intent was to have a feather for every day in November, but we started late because of my trip to California. Josiah ended up being the scribe, so sometimes more than one thing was written on each feather. We had a LOT of fun with this - this tradition is definitely a keeper!

We played a game of pictionary with the kids after lunch - lots of fun! :)
