My sister-in-law Holley invited us for Thanksgiving dinner. Her home looks so lovely, she has a real flare for decorating!
Holley is a wonderful hostess. She adds a special touch to everything she does.
It was early but when your almost 91 you can have a cool one anytime you want! How grateful we are for our sweet Johnnie Belle!
Johnnie Belle offered a beautiful prayer... she gave thanks for our government, even though they're not doing very good!
Tim is our expert turkey carver, however he was a little baffled while carving this bird. Turns out that Holley didn't realize she had put the turkey upside down on the roasting pan! Tim finally figured it out and proceeded without any problems. Tim and Holley had a good laugh about that. By the way the turkey was moist and delicious!
Come and get it!
Thanks to Holley and her family, and to Lee and Johnnie Belle for a great day. It was fun to feast together, visit and play games.
My niece had this to say about Thanksgiving and I'm borrowing it, it's just how I feel today. Well said Cheyenne!
"Today
I am grateful we actually have a holiday before Christmas, -one that we
sometimes tend to overlook. A holiday to humble ourselves and help us
realize we are not automatically entitled to everything- to remind us to
be grateful for all the blessings we have been graciously GIVEN. Happy
Thanksgiving :)"
