the day before Thanksgiving


There is lots of cooking going on at my house on Hope Lane today.
This is traditionally the day to prepare the feast.
I was up early washing and cooking sweet potatoes.
Amanda cut up the green beans.
I made the cranberry congealed salad.
She made the Asparagus Casserole.
Robert and Anna are smoking the turkey and preparing the cornbread dressing.
There is still lots left to do,
Mark will be making his traditional pumpkin pie tonight 
that makes the house smell wonderful.
I need to figure out the tablescape for this year and get that done.
Also some last-minute cleaning.

So thankful today for family, fun, and fellowship.
We'll go get seafood tonight and just relish being together,
laughing at all of the old stories,
sharing the memories of the one we lost too soon.

Thank You, God, for everything!
🦃 🧡
