Fall Traditions

November 1st is a tradition of putting up the "Thanksgiving Tree". Everyone thinks that I'm crazy and I'll take their insane glances but you know what - there aren't enough days in the year that we get to have a tree in the house that puts us in the holiday mood! So, from November 1st - January 2nd - we have the tree watching over us at night and keeping us smiling during the day.



Whenever we have company, we have leaves that were cut out by my mother-in-law, that everyone writes their name, date and what they are thankful for. Once they are done, I place them up on the tree.
Just a reminder of how blessed we are!
