Back home after Thanksgiving in Ft Walton, FL

Had a wonderful time with Dave and Liz at their home last week for Thanksgiving. We arrived early Monday morning, after the 3 hour drive. So glad they are close now that we can visit back and forth. I brought over my 7.5 Christmas tree for them since I ordered a new one for me. Here’s Liz’s Mississippi Coastal beach tree:

Mississippi cotton, star fish, and beachy driftwood.

It’s so pretty! Liz entertained 16 guests for Thanksgiving dinner. 6 of Dave and Liz's dinner guests were at their final CoBRA training before they deploy to Afghanistan in a week. It was so bittersweet to share this memorable Thanksgiving meal with them. God Bless them and keep them safe as well as all our other heroes in unsafe places fighting for all of us.

It was an amazing dinner and Thanksgiving. Liz, please send me the pics you took of your awesome new teak table all set for Thanksgiving dinner. It all looked stunning.

My new tree is on it’s way, here’s what I ordered. I love it and can’t wait. I’m changing my Christmas decorations up a little bit. Some things will be the same as I adore the way they look.

And below is my Christmas gift to me. It’s the Kingston Charleston chest, will be shipped on the 20th. Not sure which bedroom I’ll put it in, I have so many empty spots that are crying out for this sweet chest.

White Thanksgiving

I'm joining Susan at Between Naps on the Porch for Tablescape Thursday.

Before I left for Boston, I did this WHITE THANKSGIVING auto- post with pictures for Thursday. I'm in Boston, trying to fill in the blanks as time allows. So not many words, just pictures!
