Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving will be a little different this year!
We have invited one of The Mister's older brothers to join us.
He's divorced, lives alone and is on the road 6 days a week as a truck
driver. He said he's looking forward to a home-cooked meal. :)
And we just found out that a family we know in town is travelling
to New Jersey but now the dad can't go because it doesn't fit
with his work schedule. With all the food I've prepared, it will
be easy to set another place at the table! Giving and sharing
and being grateful ~ that's what it's all about, right?

  6. That is what it's about! Making room for others at the table - a way to say thanks for your own blessings! Bless you and your 5 men and everyone who shows up at dinner today!

  13. I think it's more fun when you have extra guests and it's a little more crowded around the table. Sounds like you're having a wonderful day!

    Happy Thanksgiving!
