Happy Thanksgiving America!
The table is just about set, and at the last minute I'll add several more chairs to the table. This year we'll have 19 for dinner. I love every minute of hosting Thanksgiving dinner!
Soon we will have a belly full of turkey, dressing and pumpkin pie!Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
"To make a glorious day complete,
To make each hour full and sweet,
To thank the Lord for life worth living--
That is the real and true Thanksgiving."
