(imagine that!!) <br /><br />This shop carries things for every holiday and is a super fun store to visit. <br /><br />The past several years, one of the dwarfs and I (or more) have shopped for and cooked our Thanksgiving meal and sat down to dinner together as a family of sorts. <br /><br />The dwarfs (tenants) all come from different backgrounds. Some have family not too far away, and others do not. We have a unique living situation, so we usually end up sitting down together as an odd sort of family. It's really nice.<br /><br />We don't put up any Christmas decorations until after Thanksgiving has come and gone. Yes, I shop and wrap, but I don't mail until we're into December. <br /><br />I am very thankful for all that I have, and it would be nice if Big Business would feel the same and respect our Thanksgiving holiday.<br /><br />You have a fabulous day, hugs, Edna B.Edna Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02550994321689374875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6293801213945010529.post-8566687460229204662014-11-07T14:45:46.175-05:002014-11-07T14:45:46.175-05:00I love Thanksgiving dinner with the family. We do ...I love Thanksgiving dinner with the family. We do not live close to any family but our own little gathering is so special to me. True enough it is overlooked in the stores! We are celebrating Thanksgiving with our children the weekend before this year so we can be with my husbands side of the family in Houston this year.

Lets hope not:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06753257187910518649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6293801213945010529.post-39768048446646437422014-11-07T00:12:20.083-05:002014-11-07T00:12:20.083-05:00very well said!

I agree with you...push Christmas back in it's place and let's enjoy the turkey and pumpkin pie!<br /><br />I looked all over for a t-day tablecloth today and could find nothing that wasn't Christmasy. Nothing. I feel like your little paper mache turkey!joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12112607125596693550noreply@blogger.com
