Mashed Potatoes
Sweet Potatoes
Cranberry Sauce
Deviled Eggs
Pumpkin Pie
Apple Pie
Pecan Pie

So cute! My Dog's name is Daisy and she sits at my feet while I cook too!
At least you have a dishwasher...LOL Definitely something to be grateful for :) My house doesn't have one :(
Sorry I had to delete the last comment. I was in the wrong account.
It sounds like your day and mine were pretty much the same. I totally agree...it's bedtime! I was in our kitchen prepping for tomorrow's feast since 7am, so it is definitely time to relax.
A great blessing I received tonight was that hubby said he wants to cook the turkey and will be happy to get up early to put it in the oven (as long as he can go back to bed after he does *grin*) Hey one less thing for me to do ~ so I will gladly step aside and let him.
Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours!

Hi Kelli, sounds like my day. Did as much as I could, now only have the turkey, potatoes and rolls to make in the morning. Have a fun, fun day!
God bless,
Brenda :)
Loved your post, Kelli ~
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
Loved the pictures of your kitchen.
Your china is so pretty! Have a very happy Thanksgiving!
A dishwasher? Lucky you! I think thats on my santa wish list for this year... I cant stand the thought of all that post christmas washing up by hand!!
I hope you all had a very special day there.
I wouldn`t mind being a guest at your Thanksgiving dinner, hi, hi....!!!! Have a blessed day! By the way: I have a pray circle going on. My daughters little friend, Olai, has got at brain tumor and goes through heavy treatment. He might not recover, so we have started a circle of pray. Feel free to join the circle and include Olai, almost 6 years old, in your prayer. You are more than welcome to pass this message on. The more people pray, the better his chances are...
Hugs from Tove, Norway
Oh, happy Thanksgiving, by the way!
Happy Thanksgiving, Kelli -
You have photos to prove how hard you worked. Smart idea! I hope you have a wonderful day together as you give praise for the good things God has done. When I count my blessings you are on the list! ~Adrienne~
Looks like Christmas. Here, we have all that work and fun only at Christmas Time.

A nice post. Happy Thanksgiving. May our country always remember who to give thanks to.
Happy Thanksgiving Kelli.
We don't celebrate it here in Portugal but it's a good opportunity to be thankful for so many things.
Have a wonderful day!
Oh I love your pictures! That is such a great scene on what really happens on Thanksgiving. Of course we all sit down at a pretty table and such...but the real work (and a lot of the fun and love) goes on behind the scenes.
We were busy here with similar prep. Yesterday my beloved four footed child was scarce, but this morning, once the wrapper came off that turkey, he showed up and hasn't been too far from me since!
Many blessings to you and yours from me and mine!
Everything looks absolutely gorgeous, including Daisy. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving kelli! I live in Canada and thanksgiving is already past for me, but I can still be thakfull now.
This will probably be the silliest comment you have ever received. But thank you for showing a dirty kitchen. As I scurried around yesterday I lamented at my ability to keep my kitchen clean and that it just looked like a big ole mess! But you kitchen was an encouragement to me as I know your home is your heart and also hope desire order & beauty. Thank you for so much inspiration!
What a lovely feast your family will enjoy! A labor of love for sure! Enjoy your day - blessed Thanksgiving!
P.s. My feet are sore too! It's all worth it though!
Happy Thanksgiving!!! I love reading your blog!

You dinnerware is GORGEOUS! What pattern is it?
Hi Kelli,
Happy Thanksgiving to you! Looks like you had a wonderful day of prep and I hope this is your most special celebration of all!
I don't know if Show and Tell will go ahead today - and I have to be away to day, leaving in about an hour. If it DOES happen, are you able to add me to your Mr. Linky, oh puh-leease? (with cream and sugar ontop)

Look like you were cooking up a storm! Your china is very pretty. Have a safe and wonderful weekend and get some much needed rest from the looks of all you had to do. I just got to enjoy, no cooking or cleaning.
You have a beautiful and inspiring blog! Happy Thanksgiving to you.
Lot of work, but worth the effort. Glad you had a great Thanksgiving. Have a great weekend.
Kelli, I hope your Thanksgiving was full of great memories!
We have much to be thankful for, salvation through our Lord Jesus, family, friends, food, and shelter.

wow such a lot of cooking but looks like so much fun! we dont have thanksgiving in the uk but now i feel like i'm missing out!
Your menu sounds so good and that pie crust is picture-perfect!
Happy Thanksgiving to you.
A wonderful tradition with your girls. The last 5 years I've been visiting daughter and we did our cooking together in her kitchen. This year, I did mine here in the new house. I told her I missed it. She said Wonder Boy helped quite a bit and Princess too. I know they are building their own tradition.
Son called from Texas for a recipe and we discussed "stuff". I'm so happy that he loves to cook and does so for his family. I like the picture of you in the kitchen with you girls which I could see in my head as I read your post.

Kelli...I love the china you used for your Thanksgiving china! What is the pattern? (If you don't mind sharing!!)
Looks like you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We had a dog named Daisy. A cocker spaniel mix. We had to put her down last Dec. and I miss her so much. Give your Daisy a hug for me. Mimi
awesome pictures!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family too.
Sounds like your meal included lots of the same things we ate too.
I am visiting all the Thanksgiving blogs a little late but just wanted to tell you your table was lovely and your dog is so cute.
