We had a great Thanksgiving yesterday, and I hope you did too!! My dad ALWAYS does the turkey and (like last year) he Smoked the Turkey instead of roasting it! MMMM!! It is so good!! It kinda reminds you of Bacon..lol but its TURKEY!! Who wouldn't love that? Needless to say, the food was amazing and we had a very peaceful night! We decorated the Thanksgiving table with great cheap finds! Our table cloth was a beautiful and affordable! Just a mere $5 for a cloth table cloth is unheard of! We scored this deal at Big Lots ! ( Let me just say that, if you have never been to big lots, you NEED TO GO! lol Seriously, everything in the store has great prices and you would be surprise by the variety they have there! Right now they TONS of Christmas stuff! Everything from Christmas Trees to Christmas presents...they have them! And my favorite part is that their prices are very affordable! Ooooohh!! It feels so good to buy something cute, that you need and it has a GREAT price!) We decorated with left over pumpkins (We buy a ton of punkins every year to process for our pies and breads.), some fall leaves (lol of course fake because, lets face it there is no color to the leaves in Phoenix!) and our annual Thanksgiving pilgrim candle holds! Even though our table wasn't SPECTACULAR and expensive, it was very homey and loving! Isn't that what Thanksgiving is all about? We sat around a beautiful table and talked about what we are thankful for; How the Lord has blessed us this past year. Our troubles He has turned to Joy! We just sat there (bellies full and happy) and where in awe of how the Lord provided!
I hope you reflected on your blessings yesterday and look forward to this new upcoming year and all the possibilities this year holds!
