Thanksgiving 2011

Happy Friday to you! I hope you had a joyous and delightful Thanksgiving; I'm thinking most folks are off of work today-may your day be filled with the excitement that Christmas brings. 

This is the tables that our daughter had decorated for all 17 of us.  The children had place mats to color.  Our girls are just so creative, it never ceases to amaze me.


Cousins that enjoy each other's company.
Our hosts, Kim and Eric.
Hubby and I in our element-family.
My brother and sil with the grands that weren't too tired for photos.  I had hoped to get a shot of all of them, but by the afternoon some were melting down.  WE so loved having Rich and Sue here with us-it made Thanksgiving even more special.
Hubby and I may hit two stores this morning and then come home to decorate. 
Whatever your day holds, be blessed.  Noreen

17 peeps! WOW that's crazy. It was just me and my MOM.
But no matter how many, as long as you are with the ones you love it's the best.
No shopping for us, got to sleep in. Yawnnnnnn.
Blessings,
Goose

Dear Noreen,
I am so sorry. It was a typo and I forgot to included the flour. I have a few friends who are gluten free and I know how hard it is to find recipes. Again, I am so sorry for the mix up.

I'm glad you have a lovely Thanksgiving with your family! Your grandchildren are so adorable. We were so blessed to spend the day with family also...though I forgot to take pictures! You were brave to go out shopping on Friday. Thanks for sharing! :)
