This Thanksgiving is going to be quite unusual. My husband and I take turns spending every other holiday between our two families. This Thanksgiving it's his turn. He has a small family. I'm cooking. It's unusual because half of his already small family won't be there, so it will only be 6 of us. I'm not used to having such a small gathering.
After everyone leaves, my husband will bring up our fake prelit Christmas tree. We'll plug in the movie "Home Alone" (great Christmas music on it), and my daughters and I will decorate the tree until it's just me left decorating the tree, usually finishing by the time the movie is over. It's a tradition that my kids won't let me break---ever. It's great to have them look forward to it.
I am thankful for soooo much. My faith, my life, my family, a home with food, paid bills, a job, a car that runs, Joy, and lots to look forward to!
Sounds you will be busy on Thanksgiving. Home Alone is an awesome movie and John Williams(the same guy who does music for Jurrasic Park, Star Wars, and many other soundtracks)makes the music for Home Alone. And those are very nice things to be thankful for!
