Giving Thanks

We have so much to be thankful for! All of you are on the top of our list!
It is tradition in my family to make a "Thankful Turkey." For family night tonight we made our turkey for 2011.
Ava really enjoyed "helping" cut out all of the feathers. She says "Turkey," but it sounds like "Cookie." :)
My family has been making Thankful Turkeys for many years. I found this picture of my two brothers (now 20 and 17) and our turkey for the year. One year we made it on the front page of our city's newspaper.
This was the turkey Justin and I made 6 years ago for our first thanksgiving together.
May we all remember the many things we have been blessed with in our lives.

what a GREAT blog post!!!!
love that you included photos of your family in front of the turkey. I am so happy the photo that made it into the paper is now on your blog as well.

Hey did you hear, Heather is repainting the kids bathroom just for the Thanksgiving holiday :)
She is painting stripes below the chair rail... creative!

love you so much... hey you have to add TJ on your turkey (unless I just missed that feather)
