The Thanksgiving season went way too fast this year. I felt like as soon as I put my festive harvest décor up, I was just as soon taking it down. Next year I’ve decided to put up some of the festive harvest subtlety intermixed with the Halloween décor as a general “Fall Season” theme so I can enjoy my favorite time of year longer.
Thanksgiving Feast was at our home this year, which was a special way to celebrate our first Thanksgiving in our home. So I took care to make our home have the full harvest welcoming look. Warm colors, warm lights, lots of leaves, foliage, and even a feather! I appreciated my large formal dining room and all the open space that allowed everyone to eat, eat, relax, and eat.

I am grateful for my beautiful home. It was a dream come true to have family gather in our large formal dining room at a bountiful table to basically get stuffed like a turkey. We went very simple and traditional in order to get all the plates and all the platters on the table!
"Women of God can never be like women of the world. The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity. "
