I asked John what Thanksgiving looked like this year. Perhaps I should have been more specific because he said 28F with six inches of snow! We finally came in for a real landing...Thanksgiving means being together and turkey and pumpkin pie are definite requirements. Blast! I could have done without the pie. <br /><br />In your family, I imagine that it is lovely when more than one person lands on anything. = )Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-12851670314956420922013-10-29T10:34:28.216-04:002013-10-29T10:34:28.216-04:00You are so very wise,Cheryl.

I have been doing less and less anyway, but I will do one or two really time-honored or well-loved traditions. xoBarbara F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05650730931602700042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-51679414059684195462013-10-29T09:34:58.297-04:002013-10-29T09:34:58.297-04:00This is one area that I rarely struggle.

We realized that we want to ENJOY the holidays and not look back and realize that we were so busy doing that we didn't take time to be in the moment.<br /><br />Like you, we love to celebrate! When we all get going on ideas - well I know you know! But we have found we can still celebrate and invite others in and share our joy with them, without it being "over the top." <br /><br />As I always say "People don't care what your serving - the just like to be invited!"<br /><br />Great series Cheryl! It would make a great ebook!<br /><br />DeannaDeanna Rabe - Creekside Cottage Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16133684514103206137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-36251232650374043102013-10-29T08:09:35.257-04:002013-10-29T08:09:35.257-04:00SOOOOOOOOO true!
