While Waiting on My Family.........

Click on any Image to Enlarge

I just wanted to take the time to wish each and everyone one of you a wonderful Thanksgiving. My turkeys in the oven, my table is set. I didn't want the usual bouquet of flowers from Costco so I managed to rummage through the house, gather some random candles, grabbed a pumpkin and used this wonderful Flea Market Find from this week. Its a wonderful Old silver tray and this is what I ended up with. I thought it looked quite cool so I decided to share it with you.
I also wanted to share a family fav in our house. Whenever we have a function, this is what my daughter asks for. This year she made them........

I love the color you just painted your living room. My living room is green right now and I'm ready for a change to a neutral. I may have to test that color out. I'll be back ! Sue
