After putting an invite on Facebook we got plenty of replies. I guess we weren't the only ones that didn't have any plans for Thanksgiving. Since our final number was around 40, we had to move the party into our garage.
We aren't fancy folk around here but we decorated the garage the best we could. These little trees are "Thankful Trees" and everyone wrote on the leaves what they were thankful for that day.
Tracy, Joni and Melissa made these cute turkey cupcakes for the kids.
Here's myself and mom putting the finishing touches on the tables....
Baby Hadalye and her Daddy.
Can you believe we had leftovers even with this many people?
What an awesome time we had with all our family and friends...............
