Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving Y'all! We had a great day today and we hope you did, too! We hosted our first big holiday meal. We were able to do so because we have some newly inherited dining room furniture. It couldn't have come to us at a better time and we are very thankful for it - Thanks Terrie and MeeMee! Robyn's parents and one of her aunts came over and everyone brought yummy dishes, so it was a great group effort. We didn't brave cooking the turkey. Neil took care of that for us. I am very appreciative for everyone pitching in - if I had to do it all myself I would have been a little stressed to say the least. All of the food was delicious and I think everyone enjoyed it! We hope y'alls Thanksgiving meal was just as delicious as ours and that you have taken time to count your blessings and be thankful for all you have.

Don't you feel like you've crossed a right of passage by hosting a major holiday at your own home?! Congratulations on the inherited furniture- and the placecard holders are PRECIOUS- what a great idea! Also- I love the pic of you and your mom- you both look so pretty!

Glad your party was a success. The flower arrangement is beautiful, and whoever took the pictures took some really neat ones. I'm jealous!
