My cousin posted a great link on her Facebook page with Thanksgiving prayers. Since I knew I was going to be doing the prayer, I checked it out. There were a lot of nice ones, but I went with this one.
Thanksgiving Dinner Prayer
Heavenly Father, on Thanksgiving Day
We bow our hearts to You and pray.
We give You thanks for all You’ve done
Especially for the gift of Jesus, Your Son.
For beauty in nature, Your glory we see
For joy and health, friends and family,
For daily provision, Your mercy and care
These are the blessings You graciously share.
So today we offer this response of praise
With a promise to follow You all of our days.
-Mary Fairchild

The "Thankful Trees" were a hit. It was so special to see them all hanging up to create a "Forest of Gratitude" and what a blessing it was to read the specific things everyone was thankful for. Even Love Bug did one....with a little help. (I intentionally blurred the photo to respect the privacy of my family members.)
Below are some of my favorite pictures from our two Thanksgiving dinners.
What special memory did YOU make this year?
