I think Thanksgiving is a great holiday. I love spending an entire day with my family. We play football in the yard, deep fry a turkey, devour an amazing feast, and just enjoy being together. Unfortunately Thanksgiving often gets overshadowed by the fast approaching Christmas. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Christmas, but I get tired of the "I wants" and the growing "wish lists". So this year I wanted to do something to keep the focus on what we have to be thankful for. After doing some Pinterest research, and feeling inspired by my Facebook friends' daily thankful posts, I decided we would make a Thankful Tree and Thanksgiving Plates. I think they turned out really nice, and they were cheep and really easy to do. Check both tutorials out on my Holidays Page.
