Happy Thanksgiving!

A lot of folks have asked what my Husband and I were going to do for Thanksgiving this year.  So many invites, it was hard to figure out how to be in so many places at once.  So many options of stuffing, deserts, wine....you name it, it was offered.  We opted to have a low key Thanksgiving this year, working so hard, it was super nice to relax in the warmth of the weather (85 degrees) and no complaints.  I took a pic of our turkey to share with all of you, and boy, let me tell you.....it was something else!!!!!!!!


Doesnt it look terrific?  My husband did the honors this year, and he is now hired :)   I know you are all looking very closely, and now have clicked on the pic to enlarge it..... what the world?!?!!??!!!


You are correct.  It is an inflatable Turkey!!!!!! Can you EVEN?!!!!!!! LOL. We had such a great time with this, we thought you would get a kick out of it too!!!!!!!!  We did have a great bird though, 13 pounder, with all the fixings, and yes, the pumpkin pie is coming, just making room for it.  Yes, and cool whip too!

I am thankful for so many things this year.  I have the Best Husband anyone could ask for, we are both healthy, both working hard, have a roof over our heads, have the best friends and family anyone could ask for.  We have been truly blessed.  Thank you to all who have touched my life this year.  I look forward to seeing what next year brings :)


I did not get much stitching done this week, but I am going to try and make up for it this weekend.  With a few days off, I am hoping.  Here is a progress pic of the lion from stitching today.  






I am hoping to have this one at the framers early next week :)

Enjoy the rest of your Holiday weekend.  PS, anyone getting up early to go to Box Mart?!
