Thanksgiving and a craft show

Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!  ~Psalm 95:2

Happy month of Thanksgiving!  It is my favorite holiday each year.  I believe it doesn't get enough credit anymore.  Thanksgiving is sandwiched right in the middle of the craziness of the beginning of the school year and the busyness of the Christmas season.  Being a teacher and working in a Hallmark store, I get the most of both of these occasions.  There's something about Thanksgiving though....something that makes me want to slow down....something that makes me appreciate the little things and family and close friends even more than normal.  

Thanksgiving brings togetherness and cozy times with family, mouth-watering aromas of homemade-from-scratch pumpkin pie and roasting turkey, and a break from most working hours.  What do you do for Thanksgiving that warms your heart and fills you with warm fuzzies?

With my true feelings about Thanksgiving shared above, another event happening for me in November is my first craft show.  It's more of a holiday shopping night, but for me it is a first.  This is the first time I am bringing my vases anywhere for the general public to see.  I've been busy preparing some fun new creations for these event.  Enjoy this sneak preview!  The show is at Kenowa Hill's Early Childhood Center on Thursday November 15 from 6-8 pm.  Come see them in person!
