Family Thanksgiving

I guess you could say our Thanksgiving was kind of a bummer this year. Nathan's shift started on Thanksgiving day, so we couldn't travel to see our families. We went last weekend, but we didn't do a Thanksgiving feast. We just visited. Still, I wanted it to feel like Thanksgiving, so I bought a small turkey breast and baked it Wednesday while the kids were in school. We had Thanksgiving dinner on a much smaller scale, but I was so grateful to sit around the table with my family and talk about all the blessings we are thankful for. I took one snapshot of the small event. The kids insisted on lit candles, and Josie was trying to blow them from her seat. You'll notice the folding chairs. When I bought my table the store didn't have the chairs that I wanted, and I've never gotten back to buy my chairs. We actually borrowed the folding chairs. If nothing else, this little meal made me determined to buy my chairs. I want us to sit like this every night, instead of having the kids at the bar and Nathan and I at the table with Josie.
