Our family enjoyed a tradition filled holiday.
The day began with the annual Turkey Trot. Chip and Lauren ran the 5 mile race, with everyone else cheering them on!
Lauren baked the Black Bottom Pumpkin Pie featured in the November 2012 issue of Southern Living. A good bit of work but so worth it. Delicious!
Our chef! Chris deep fried the turkey. Lollie especially loved the crispy skin!
Another tradition. Every year, I use this antique tool box for my dining room floral arrangement. I purchased the box more than 30 years ago, while living in Columbus, Ohio.
The glitter wreath is a favorite. Each year it makes its appearance for Thanksgiving and hangs over the mirror until the end of February. I just can't bear to put it in storage after Christmas!
Here is another Thanksgiving tradition. The pumpkin turkey greets guests as they arrive.
Someone ate too much - another family tradition!
After Chip recovered, everyone headed outside for a photo opp. Hopefully one of the shots will make the annual Christmas card!
A wonderful day. So many blessings. So much to be thankful for.
