"Home" for Thanksgiving....and a ghostly tree!

The table was set;

And our crew, ready for the feast, holding up pictures of goats. Why? Because grandma and grandpa are giving money to needy families in Haiti so they can buy goats. How cool is that?

(notice the hats... a pre-Christmas gift, just for fun)

About 11 hours later, 10:30 p.m...we headed back home (the loooong walk home...just three doors down..I am so lucky!) very excited for the following morning where we would be heading out to the tree farm to find yet another perfect Christmas tree.

Just 24 more fun-filled days left...I am trying to savor every second. It's almost as if I am sad it's here, because it goes by so dang fast...but then again, it's my very favorite time. If the days could just be filled with more hours....trying to make this time of year picture perfect.
