.......this is why thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays of the year.......a day to sit back and enjoy being together....and to reflect on the many blessings that come our way .......I think every day should be a thanksgiving day .....it would make our lives all the richer......
....so on that note I thought I would share a "b" family tradition that was started four years ago...... a simple linen tablecloth that gets pulled out every year for the thanksgiving meal, and after dinner we write what we are all thankful for on it.........it has already been a treat to look back on the past few years ....... there are so many things to be thankful for......
......I'm so thankful for each and every one of you, and hope you have a very happy thanksgiving!
.....signing off until monday......when I will finally be sharing my new york secret....woot....

Happy Thanksgiving....
we do something similiar and have everyone sign their name on the tablecloth and then one of us "sisters" embroiders the names in a different color thread each year. It is fun to watch the little ones printed names change each year!
happy thanksgiving pal
hope you have a fun weekend :)

I love this idea! I might have to do that with my family someday :-)
Lovely, and what a great tradition! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Very sweet, Barb -- which we could be there!
what a fantastic idea! I love it!
I don't know if I am just missing family or a wee bit emotional but I got a little teary (in a good way) while looking over the photos of little handwritten notes on your linen tablecloth. What a beautiful tradition in every way! xoxo
i love it, the garland, and you.
and i especially love that conley's list began with boiled custard! ;-) it made me smile real big ;-)
Love this idea!! Blogged about it today!! Have a LOVELY Thanksgiving! xo
What a beautiful tradition. So each year when you bring it out, you can read and remember what you were thankful for the year before. This warms my heart. Happy Thanksgiving Barb and many blessings.
what a neat idea! happy thanksgiving to you!
I love it! Now I need to find a linen tablecloth!!! I'll start looking!!! Maybe I'll cheat and do a Thankgiving '09 list retrospectively once I find it.
Happy Thanksgiving!
