I'm thankful for you!

These are the  turkeys Alissa & Britny brought home through the years! This one makes me laugh always she tells what she's thankful for and there is no mention of her sisters! I hung them over the table .

Also have all their turkey hands!

The little pins are Macy's Day balloons!

The leaves are the to represent the acts of kindness the family is to do for others , the rose petals are the love and the light is letting yourself shine! Ali and I cooked everything then I ran 4 miles came home to finish the turkey and drank too much wine! 

Happy Thanksgiving !

My Christmas Tree

I made the seashell ornaments they look cool with lights!

My old Peace pine cone wreath broke so I made a new one . It looks good too. Ali is inspiring me!

I put my African bracelets and necklaces on the tree. Ali loves it . 

The bottom is my necklaces they go all around.

Still working on tray almost done.

I had to do the tree early because my job.  I am working many hours now until midnight Wednesday and 0400 day after Thansgiving but still it is better than Djibouti where I worked on Thanksgiving.

I always put a wreath indoors too for the family not just for outsiders! I really want Peace on Earth and in all our Hearts!! Peace out!

Thick Skin

While waiting to go on Rockin Roller Coaster Ali tells me her teacher gave them an assignment to pretend they have a time machine and can go back to Revolutionary War and she says she doesn't need a time machine she can ask her parents....and here I thought I was a young hip mother?! I'm going to need thicker skin to make it past the teen years with this one.

This was the last year for the famous Christmas lights!

It was beautiful!

My Africa!

Such a beautiful night!

3 Djibouti Customers

Yesterday my 3ird Djibouti customer came to the store. It is funny the reaction and that we did not know how close we lived. This one was a cop I dealt  with so many times. He might come for Thanksgiving. It is a very small world .
