This Thanksgiving I'm thankful
that we get to stay here
I know many people travel so they
get to see loved ones they hold dear
We will have our small family
and of course grandma to help out!
During the last few years we've had
a lot of loss--family is what it's all about!
Can't wait to serve up the turkey
From the squash to sweet rolls too!
We are so blessed with food and family
I hope you have a dinner that satisfies you!
And you can guess that after the
turkey is eaten and Thanksgiving is done
I'm going to finish my Christmas cards
The Christmas season will have officially begun!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
