Thanksgiving....table is set!

We are ready for the guests to arrive!
We use our living room for feasting since it's giant size....and it's PINK...the best combination for eating, really.  Long term goal is to convert this room into the official Dining Room---yes, that means we will also be painting it a very different color.  There is no way we will ever need a formal living room in this house, but we love eating and hosting parties, so it makes more sense to call it a Dining Room.  It will be a grand space. 

It was a real treat to break out our china and use it for this very special occasion.  So elegant; love it!
















We had room for 7 at the table we just built and then room for 5 more at the real dining room table that we moved into this room for the day!














We decided to use a separate table near the window for the food to rest on warming trays.  Buffet-style I guess you call it.  Worked out well for those who wanted hot seconds.

our delicious turkey....yum yum!....





Me and my niece Caitlyn...stunning red coat!
