Turkey was eaten, pies were devoured, sweet potato souffle was finished off. It was a delicious meal thanks to everyone who attended. I mentioned at the dinner table how I felt like it was a Stone Soup kind of meal. I offered to have Thanksgiving dinner at my place and then everyone else brought all the good stuff. Well, I made the turkey and cranberries but I absoutely could not have done it without my mom's help.... Owen wrote and decorated the place cards, and Elliot helped by devouring all the carrots and broccoli he could find.
Anyway, it was a great Thanksgiving, for which I am very thankful.

Lisel, you are so precious to have Thanksgiving dinner. I know how much Ruth Ann appreciates you! Bless you! Owen, how cool to have made place cards for everyone!! That way no one had to wonder where to sit and besides that I just know they all smiled because you made them. Elliot, I'm so glad you could help by eating some of the food. You were just the right size for that task!!!
I know all about stone soup--my sister Sue made stone soup for her kids' birthdays. It was a tradition. Josh asked one day---mom do you really think that stone makes the soup tastes better? What fun!
