Our Thanksgiving was a wonderful one ~ we may live in Florida and not have the snow but we have Family ~ Friends ~ Delicious Food ~ and Fun times together. The day was spent at my brother Kenny's house and most of it outside near the pool and outside kitchen/bar... What fun we all had taking about Thanksgivings past and what we are thankful for today.
The kids hanging out by the pool ~ My daughter Denise & Grandson Dominick
The guys watching football ~ some outside & some inside
I am thankful for a wonderful family, my friends, good health and a husband who loves me so much... I am also thankful for the two beautiful daughters that we have and how much they have accomplished in their lives... they have given us such wonderful grandchildren whom we are doubly proud of. I am also very thankful I am living the life I always dreamt of living!!!

The only sad part about our day was my youngest daughter was not here with her beautiful family to celebrate with us ~ however they had a great day at their home in Arkansas....
I am hoping your festivities were special and full of good food too!
Have Fun, Travel Safe & Stay Healthy!!!

Hi Donna! What a great time you must have had and it's so nice to see your family! That outdoor kitchen is amazing! :) You look great and I hope you're feeling good now!
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked my tree. Well, I'm still learning to use my camera. I have a Canon T31. To get the night shot I set the dial to Av and then turned my little dial to a high number. It could be the shutter speed, I'm not sure. But I found out, I need to get a tripod because it's really particular - doesn't like wiggly hands! :)
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
