Everyone must take the time to sit and watch the leaves turn...

Let me start off  by saying that I LOVE Christmas time!  BUT...  I am absolutely not a person who rushes right over everything and jumps into Christmas.  I love Christmas, like I said, but everything in its own time!  Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday because I have SO MUCH to be thankful for!  

So with that in mind, I just wanted to share a little bit of the Thanksgiving season around the Mahoney house...

Our front door

Nook in the china cabinet (my mom made that awesome tile there, it's my favorite scripture passage!)

Key holder (I made that at my favorite place, As You Wish)

The best smelling pinecones around!

Can't wait to get some firewood!

I got these buckets and the potpourri at Michael's last year.  Amazingly, they still smell great!

Arranged it myself :)

I kinda wanna try this recipe! hehehe

On top of the TV

In the middle of the table

Now I know I haven't taken you on a tour of my house yet, but it's never perfect!  lol  I know, I know, I should just do it!  Soon enough I'll have pictures of the place posted.  Until then, you get this limited view!

For each new morning with its light,
For rest and shelter of the night,
For health and food, for love and friends,
For everything Thy goodness sends.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson

I love Emerson!  But you know me, I love humor.  So lets end on a funny note...

May your stuffing be tasty
May your turkey plump,
May your potatoes and gravy
Have nary a lump.
May your yams be delicious
And your pies take the prize,
And may your Thanksgiving dinner
Stay off your thighs!
