Thanksgiving

We had the privilege of hosting Thanksgiving at our house this year!  It was such a great day, spent with everyone that we love...all 18 of us!  It's times like these that Aaron and I remember just how lucky we are to have such an amazing family.  

Not all families are lucky enough to blend well, and have a great time together, but ours seem to do it effortlessly.  I am so mad at myself for not getting a big group photo...(pumpkin martini's may have had something to do with that ;) )  But, everyone had such a great time that I think this will be a tradition, so I will be sure and get one next year!  

Since I failed to take anymore people pictures...here's a few of the tables.  Thanks to Pinterest, I had a blast decorating for Thanksgiving dinner.  I couldn't bust out my china and not try to fancy up the tables a bit ;)

Turn some wine glasses upside down, and use as candle holders...so simple, yet elegant.

The "adult" table ;)

I loved the mini-pumpkin tea light holders.  They were so easy to make...just drill a hole in the top of the pumpkin big enough to hold the tea light candle...and viola!  You have tea light candle holders :)

Thanks again to everyone who shared Thanksgiving with us.  We had one of the best ever, and can't wait to do it again next year.  Hope yours was filled with as much family and love as ours was :)
