Happy Thanksgiving!
We are so thankful for a day to gather with family and friends,
around a table set with love and traditions.
Remembering those no longer with us,
keeping their memory alive by honoring
the teachings they left with us.
Enjoying a centerpiece of harvest flowers and keepsake treasures.
Thankful for plates ready to fill with a hearty dinner of turkey and trimmings.
Layers of Blue Asiatic Pheasants
on rusty colored chargers~
and vintage salad bowls of leaves and fruit.
Reminding us, the joys of a fruitful life.
Happy to mix a little formal with rustic.
Letting grapevine wreaths hold our lace napkins and a fallen leaf.
In keeping with traditions and memories,
Blue Willow must take a place at our table,
Treasures that graced grandmother's table so long ago.
Mixing the old with the new in ways that bring the past into the present.
Our boat overflows with the flavors of life, topping the blessing of God's bounty this day.
The salt of the earth and a little pepper blesses us with the spice of life.
(The wonderful place cards were created by Diane of 1CardCreator)
Taking our place in appreciation to celebrate another wonderful day.
As the sun goes down, dinner will be served.
Thankful for blessings too many to count.
Grateful for another day in a year of abundance.
Thankful knowing each day is a gift to share with family and friends.

Wishing my U.S. blog friends a very
Happy Thanksgiving and to say, I'm so thankful for your friendship.
And to all my blog friends from around the world,
I am so thankful for your friendship too.
Together you all bless my world in ways
I never imagined.
Blessings and Blue Skies Be Yours.
See you again soon.
Hugs,
Celestina Marie

Thanksgiving Blessings to you and your Family, Celeste! Love your table all set for dinner. I'm breaking with the traditional Turkey and making one of my long-time favorites {I haven't been able to find here near Toledo in nearly 10 years} Beef Short Ribs in my Slow Cooker...with Noodles and Broccoli. I'm Thankful to have found a place that sells them and they look so good. ♥
It all looks beautiful! I wish you a very happy Thanksgiving! Hugs, Valerie
Happy Thanksgiving, Celeste, to you and yours. Beautiful post today. May God bless.
Good morning beautiful one....I am so thankful that we connected this year, for I have learned so much from you about your values (that I share too) and your incredible energy to create. Without that inventive spirit, I don't know how I'd survive the pressures of life.
I love how you opened up your post. Remembering and honoring those who taught us how to celebrate these moments of life. My parents, my aunts and uncles who are no longer with us taught us kids who remain how to enjoy each other daily. Your dining room is FABULOUS!!!!!!! AHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Love it all. Blessings to you dearest Celeste! Anita
