happy thanksgiving.

i am hoping you had a very happy thanksgiving. i most certainly did. it was absolutely wonderful. our home was filled with family and many dear friends. i felt truly thankful to be surrounded by the abundance of love and friendship. thankful for my wonderful husband who cooked a 27 pound turkey and helped throughout the day. thankful for children. thankful for the warmth of our home. thankful my mom could be with us this year. thankful for the food that graced our table.

and in the end, after the last guest left and my children were in bed, thankful for the peace and quietness. it was the perfect time to remember all the things i am thankful for.

p.s. - i'm also thankful for one charming party & their tutorial on how to make this brown paper bag turkey. it was filled with popcorn and the kids loved it!!
