We’re heading off for our annual field trip to the Pumpkin Patch soon, and it’s got me thinking about Fall decorations and Thanksgiving!
Do you have any Thanksgiving traditions? Besides turkey, ya turkey! {grin} Since losing my parents in 2006, we’re still trying to feel out our very own, family holidays. Last year we had a nice meal and then took a walk with the kiddos and collected leaves and saw deer tracks and the boys played hiding soldier games in the tall grass. It was fun, although it felt like a lot of work for just us.
This year we’ll be adding in football–since our UNDEFEATED “Geeen Bay” Packers are playing Detroit that afternoon. {grin}
It’s also the start of hunting season around here, so we’ll have trucks, and dogs, and camo hanging out everywhere soon. I guess that says Holidays as much as anything else around here.
And it’s time for us to get out there and collect pine cones and pretty leaves (ok, we probably need another week or three for the leaves to really hit peak color around here) and acorns to decorate the house. And stocking up the pantry, of course.
How early do you start thinking about the holidays?
