Happy Mini Thanksgiving!

It's that time of year again....time for Mini Thanksgiving!

We always look forward to this time of year, we have so many things to celebrate and be thankful for! Of course since it is the week of Thanksgiving we had to celebrate in mini style! This has been a fun tradition for us to do over the years....this is year 3 of it! So much fun.

We spent our Sunday sleeping in, going to church, and getting ready. We prepared our own mini thanksgiving (MT), just getting ready for one day when we will make our own big thanksgiving! As we waited for the baby turkey to cook in the oven we made our mini white-chocolate pudding pies! We got prepared for MT by making a pilgrim hat and a feathered indian headband. We like to dress up, and take turns being each character every year. We made homemade mashed potatoes and corn. Maybe next time Jacqui will make candied yams!

We got the table all set with our mini bowls, silverware, lunch trays, and fancy glasses. Jacqui was the pilgrim so she got to carve the baby turkey this year. The dinner was delicious, the company was great, and we made peace over dinner!

The table is all set!
