What Are You Thankful For? ~Thanksgiving 2009~

THANKFUL FOR FAMILY.

Thanksgiving was a little different at our house this year. Since most of us had been sick this week we decided it best not to have family over.

really... we like to share... just not germs!

THANKFUL FOR FEELING BETTER.

So, we cooked for just the five of us. The 14 pound turkey was thawed and had to be cooked. We have lots of leftovers. YUMMY!

so if you come to our house in the next week you know what you'll be eatin'!

THANKFUL FOR YUMMY FOOD.



Looking at these pictures makes me want to go back for more!



We started a new tradition last year...



I bought a sheet to use as a tablecloth...

don't look at the wrinkles... i actually think they add character... (man, i gotta remember that one in about 30 yrs! ...what? hey, i'm still young!)

and every year whoever sits at our Thanksgiving table writes what they are thankful for along with the date.

It's really fun to go back and read what everyone wrote and to remember those who have been around our table.

THANKFUL FOR MEMORIES.

Here are what the boys added this year.
