This is the extent of my Thanksgiving decorations -
Yep, that's it. I didn't even put a special hanger in the wall for it, I just plopped it on a nail that had been in the wall when I bought the house and that I couldn't pull out by myself, (I didn't feel like calling my dad just to yank out a nail) so I painted over it.
As I said before, this year we are not doing the traditional family Thanksgiving thing. Some of you might have noticed that Emmett becoming a Floridian happens on Thanksgiving, and well that is not entirely true. Emmett doesn't actually come home with me until the Saturday after Turkey Day, but I will be spending Thanksgiving with him.
My mother and I are meeting my aunt, cousin, and of course, Emmett in Savannah for Thanksgiving! My mother and I are getting up bright and early and driving to Georgia on Thursday morning - we are hoping to get there by 1 p.m. so that we can change and hang out with Emmett before us humans head out for Turkey dinner. So where are we having our Thanksgiving feast you ask - at The Lady & Sons, Paula Deen's Savannah restaurant. We got the very last reservation they had available, which is why we are eating at 3:15 in the afternoon. I am so excited!! I love love love Paula Deen (shh, don't tell anyone).
We figure we Thanksgiving evening will be spent by us laying around our hotel room holding our stomachs and groaning. As for Black Friday we are going to hit Savannah's riverfront and maybe a square or two. I am trying to plan the day so that Emmett can come along.
Then come Saturday, mom, Emmett, and I are heading back to south Florida - and Emmett will finally become a Floridian!!
(Oh, and my dad plans on spending Thanksgiving fishing, and my sister will be eating dinner with her boyfriend and his extended family.)
