We frequently have large groups over for dinner and have been trying to figure out how to get everyone in the same room...you have got me thinking :-) Have a great weekendMaryannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05147215921425305908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-9725429687213052822014-11-14T18:44:04.880-05:002014-11-14T18:44:04.880-05:00Oh, "pin the tail feathers on the turkey"...Oh, "pin the tail feathers on the turkey" sounds fun. My grandsons will like this. I'll draw a large turkey and cut out some paper feathers (that they can color for me first.) <br /><br />I read that early American homes had furniture that was often moved or transformed to fit the social function. Shaker chairs were stored along the top of the wall on pegs, round-backed benches could fold to make a small table, long drop leaf tables could seat 8 more people, etc. Your house transformation is following suit - in early American style.Karen Andreola (on Dean's computer)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-35034878616210067292014-11-14T18:36:41.709-05:002014-11-14T18:36:41.709-05:00I'll have to bookmark this post.

I'm starting to think plan a early Thanksgiving since our son from Eastern Washington won't have Thanksgiving off but will travel here with his girlfriend on the 22nd. We will enjoy a Thanksgiving meal that day so I better get busy!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-47290184854713004602014-11-14T14:52:54.671-05:002014-11-14T14:52:54.671-05:00A lot of good ideas here.

We started rearranging the dining room and living room to have more space and extend the table and eventually made the switch permanent so now we have a large dining room and a cozy little living room. I like the idea of kids dressing up. As a child I so loved anything to do with the pilgrim story.podsohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14880888514207597761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-2407080836768602092014-11-14T12:59:07.333-05:002014-11-14T12:59:07.333-05:00Lucy, they take a few white tissues and ball them ...Lucy, they take a few white tissues and ball them up and put them in a toy bowl.
