These are just a few shots from the day after Thanksgiving. The family went on a stroll through Scituate and stopped by a few little shops. Then we headed back to the house for food and fun.

We had Thanksgiving dinner at my sister’s house this year. It might be one of my favorite Thanksgivings to date. All the cousins ran around outside. The weather was beautiful. The food was delicious! The only thing that could have made it MORE perfect was having ALL of our family there.

Please enjoy! (and feel free to comment at the bottom of the post.)

I am grateful for my parents, family and friends. My parents aren’t perfect but I love them and I’m grateful to God for them. They taught me to love people and to put God first which I’m not always very good at BUT they did teach me that. They try to do the same. We all mess up. I can make a list, can’t you? But in the end they taught me about love, forgiveness and being human. (1 John 4:7-11)

ALSO, this is a very cool pillow my Mom made recently at our last quilting get-together. She dreamt it up and made it by hand from two sports jackets. Is it not the COOLEST pillow EVER? Check out the back: buttons, pocket, and a tag from the jacket from which she constructed the pillow. (And, I’d like to give a shout-out to my Mother-in-law who made the pillow in the background w/ the white and red buttons. Talented family!)

And then there is George, always there to help ;)

Happy Thanksgiving to all!!
