Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! \u00a0<\/p>\n

It doesn’t seem possible that next week we will be celebrating Thanksgiving–then it will be Christmas time and then the end of another year! \u00a0Where does the time go???<\/p>\n

I thought I would share some Thanksgiving ideas with you–some ideas for food and some for decorating. \u00a0So, whether you are hosting dinner for family or friends or going to someone’s home, I think you will enjoy these ideas!<\/p>\n

If you are hosting Thanksgiving dinner, greet your guests with a fantastic-looking entry. \u00a0I love lanterns, and I thought this one from Home Talk<\/a> made for a really attractive front porch.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Greet your guests with this Thanksgiving \u00a0banner from Cost Plus World Market<\/a>. \u00a0I have been using banners on my fireplace for various holidays and seasons.<\/p>\n

\"thanksgiving2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I love fall and the fall colors. \u00a0That is why I love decorating for fall and Thanksgiving and being able to use these colors as part of the decorating theme. \u00a0I thought this table decor from Ana Rosa<\/a>\u00a0is beautiful.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"thanksgiving5\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Also, the tray and candles from Whats Ur Home Story<\/a> would make a great statement on that table or ottoman.<\/p>\n

\"thanksgiving1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let the kiddos get in on the decorations as well. \u00a0This cute idea from First For Women<\/a> would be great for the kids to make and have ready when the guests arrive.<\/p>\n

\"thanksgiving3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I found a couple of fun ideas for table settings. \u00a0If you are hosting a buffet-type dinner I thought this idea from The Felt Store<\/a> was a fun idea.<\/p>\n

\"thanksgiving6\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you are having a formal-type dinner, I love this idea from Fantabulosity<\/a> for personalized place cards.<\/p>\n

\"thanksgiving\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

While the turkey is roasting in the oven, have this fun “pumpkin” dip and veggies ready for your guests. \u00a0This is a great idea from the Bright Ideas blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"thanksgiving8\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Turkey, dressing and all of the trimmings are usually the main menu for Thanksgiving. \u00a0I always have to make Watergate Salad as part of my menu. \u00a0If you need the recipe, Kraft Recipes<\/a> has this on their website.<\/p>\n

\"watergatesalad\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Desserts are a must for the dinner – especially pumpkin pie as far as I am concerned! The kiddos might enjoy these special turkey cupcakes if they don’t like pumpkin pie. \u00a0 \u00a0My Frugal Adventures<\/a> has this idea on Pinterest.<\/p>\n

\"turkeycupcake\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Whatever your plans for this special day, I hope you will stop and give thanks for all of your many blessings. \u00a0I think this printable from \u00a0Frugaltiy Gal<\/a> sums it all up.<\/p>\n

\"thanksgiving9\"<\/a><\/p>\n

HAPPY \u00a0THANKSGIVING \u00a0TO \u00a0EVERYONE!!<\/strong><\/p>\n
