thankful

i am feeling very thankful this year.  i was reminded this week of how precious life really is.  i'm feeling extra grateful for my family and for my dear friends. 

our family had a wonderful thanksgiving last night, hosted by my sweet in-laws.  look at the adorable place settings for the kids- those are chalk boards- precious, i know.  my mother-in-law sets a beautiful table and makes a really delicious meal.

 i'm thankful for my nieces and nephews.....all ten of them!  ten- how fun is that?

 anna michael was very thankful for ice cream yesterday.  she didn't especially care for dinner, but loved dessert. 

 and as usual, i am extremely thankful for these three faces.  i mean, don't you want to just squeeze them? 

happy thanksgiving

 ok, so these are not for my family.  these are for a friend who will be hosting her entire family this thanksgiving.  good luck cheryl!  please remember if you have an idea- i love doing custom orders like this at my little shop!

last night in my house we put up our christmas decorations.  i tend to skip right over thanksgiving.  but this morning at preschool, jack was the cutest "squanto" you've ever seen- so bring on the turkey!  i'm back in the spirit of things!  i can almost smell the turkey cooking at my mother-in-law's house.....yum, yum!

happy thanksgiving everyone!  -stephanie
