Thanksgiving Wish

I love Thanksgiving! I love the time with family! I've always had this wish that one day I could host Thanksgiving at my house but if you saw my house you would know that's not possible! We have a large family on both sides! My family spends Thanksgiving day together at memaw and pawpaw's with about 40 family members! Food galore, football on and lively entertainment with so many people in one place!

We start the morning with the Gobble Jog. It started out with my, momma and Daniel. Then last year we added dad, gremaw, Jake the dog, Choo Choo and my sister! This year we get to add my little mister and Paisley Jane!  I love the start to our turkey day! We finish it with the lighting of the tree at lenox! It's by far one of my most favorite times of the year!

Back to my wish to host Thanksgiving...Maybe I'm a dreamer but I want to look down my Thanksgiving table and see my hubby sitting at the other end, my sis and her family sitting side by side, my parent's, my grandparent's, my in-laws and hopefully my large bundle of kids that we pray to have! Oh the sight dancing around in my head puts a smile on my face! So loud that you can't hear the person next to you, full of giggles from little ones, smiles on each face and a room full of so much love that no one can deny the Lord's presence in our families.

Of course this all comes complete with a super cute table! My inspiration for the future...I got these from the blog The 36th Avenue! Too cute!






I love the simplicity, the colors and that I can do it all myself without spending much!! It can go with any color scheme and I already have the white dishes! So maybe just maybe one day I will host Thanksgiving at my house and get to decorate my table in such a festive fashion!
