Sadly, I have too little, but I do use lots of seasonal candles, pumpkins and gourds that I keep out until the day after Thanksgiving. I used to be guilty of rushing it...but since I delivered a precious soon-to-be 6-year old 4 days before Thanksgiving that year, I now an conscientious about not moving into Christmas mode too soon! After all, he was my "Thanksgiving" baby and I don't want to make Benjamin feel like we gloss over the month of November in anticipation of Christmas!<br /><br />Blessings,<br />val<br /><br />P.S. Do you own, Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving by Dav Pilkey? One of my absolute FAVORITE books. I used it all of the time with my 3rd graders!!! Follows Twas the Night Before Christmas rhyming scheme...told from the POV of the turkeys! So stinkin' cute!<br /><br />Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17633704862629969672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-830473372238505362.post-53207872985260340492012-11-12T18:06:18.672-08:002012-11-12T18:06:18.672-08:00You are so cute!

Thanksgiving gets passed over so quickly. As soon as the day is done around here I scurry to pack it away to get out those red and green bins from the attic.

Those little Thanksgiving people are too cute. I agree that Thanksgiving gets glossed over. We in fact don't have a single Thanksgiving specific decoration. I hope a couple of little pumpkins count! Have a great week!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01858039489422734407noreply@blogger.com
