Thanksgiving 2008

I know Thanksgiving was last week...but here's a pic of the kids making their annual "Thankful turkeys".





We've made these since our first Thanksgiving together. The last Thanksgiving my nephews were here, they made them too. I even had my Brownie troop make them for their Thanksgiving project. They are fun and easy. I happen to keep them and plan on giving them back to them for memories.


Here's our table with everything on it, set to go. It's kind of drab because I couldn't find all my stuff in storage in time. Like my linens. Still wondering where they are. I was happy to at least find all my trays and serving dishes. As well as my dish sets. lol



I collect salt and pepper shakers. Some day I'm going to have do a post of all of them. But there are my turkey salt and pepper shakers.



Here's my turkey butter, ain't she pretty? I have a confession, I kissed her before I put her on the table, I did it in front of everyone. I just think she's adorable!



and my turkey...oooh boy! It came out perfect. We brine our turkey every year. Let me just say there is nothing left.



In our family, everyone (well, 'cept the bettas and Kreacher) gets a plate for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!



I've got my turkey brining. Hubs and the oldest made the pies and dips and a whole bunch of other stuff earlier while I was putting up the Christmas lights on the house and well...we're trying to pull it together. The oldest and I went and picked up a lot of the kitchen stuff from the storage so now my house looks like I'm just moving in. *sigh* I have a load dishes washing as I type.



We haven't heard from our realtor yet about the other house and the earnest money. But we did get an e-mail today that there is a person interested in possibly buying our house. Go figure! Our house never went up on the market and isn't for sale. I'm tempted to find out if they are serious and if they are willing to pay what we are asking for. I'm so drained with the whole thing, I don't want to get my hopes up, I don't feel I can be anything right now. I feel like it's a bad joke.



In fact I am so afraid of posting what I am thankful for because the minute it comes out of my mouth everything I say turns to shit. So just know that I am really THANKFUL. lol





Happy Thanksgiving Everyone...oh, and I can't believe I haven't done my annual turkey butter post. But yes, I secured my Turkey Butter weeks ago. lol Reading about my mission last year makes me believe I really am crazy. Oh, what I would give to have those days back when that was my greatest worry. *grin*
