Ooooooo Turkey Treeeee

I slept in this morning and then shuffled into the family room to discover Endora and P hard at work with a surprise for me. 

The Xmas tree was up!

But, it wasn't an Xmas tree... It was a thanksgiving tree!

Long ago, the day we put the tree up was my bday in Dec. The last several years, we have made the day after thanksgiving our traditional day since I had wanted the tree up in time for my bday party as a decoration. 

This year, Endora was just ready to put it up instead of waiting to feel rushed after the holiday. They had the brilliant idea to do fall decorations on it :)

I love it. 

Today is laundry day and I'm making Guinness cupcakes for Thomas then experimenting with the food for my bday holiday party. I'm doing a "my favorites things" party so I will be making schnitzel with noodles for dinner. For lunch / afternoon snack, I am making home made pretzel bites and home made warm beer cheese dip.

I'll leave you with some pics of our "Turkey Tree"
