I found out today that my niece and her husband (the ones who I did that epic dessert bar for) will be coming for Thanksgiving dinner. I’m traditionally the host for Thanksgiving dinner. They have to travel in and I felt the most thankful with that news. Thankful that my sister-in-law was having company and the two sisters were going to be able to hang out.
I’m also feeling completely thankful for the extra company coming to my house as my children now traditionally spend Thanksgiving with the “married in” side of the family.
The extra company means I may need to rearrange and pull in and set up an additional table this year and I am completely happy about this! Do I need to get another fall tablecloth? Yes, fun!
I am thankful I get to get out my planner and start working out what dinner looks likes this year. Grateful that God has given me provisions to be able provide a wonderful meal and time for my family. Hosting is a happy place.
You get the picture.

This reminded me that this is is the perfect time for me to journal all about this season of plenty. Instead of a blank book. I like to create my own binders with printable sheets. I’m going to pull pages from our “Eat Drink and Be Thankful Journal” and do a bit of journaling. I appreciate pretty things, do you?
