Thankful.... stick with me....

Today is Tuesday... the Tuesday before the Thursday we celebrate Thanksgiving... and Husband and I get to host again this year (we go in a rotation... Us, CountryMum, Mama) and we are THRILLED. Husband has plans for his turkey brine (oh SO good!) and a turkey that is cooked in a barrel. (I am a skeptic) ;)

But first... first before I fall off the face of the earth because I am making sure that THIS year the potatoes (from our garden) are cooked and the table is BEAUTIFUL.... (BAH!) this... is what REALLY matters....

Giving back. People who don't have "traditions" or they DO have traditions but they can't DO them this year because of a health expenses, an unexpected job loss, a pregnancy that wasn't expected....

The BEST part of my Thanksgiving holiday....Spending time bring things to the local shelter...


Sorting things out to "help"



and hearing about the 2000 families that will come to get their Thanksgiving food this year...

Just listening to Megan talk about her "job" which is really her passion is thrilling. She cares so much about people and how to help them find a better life by offering something like food or a space to sleep, to get them back up and on their feet. She is inspiring, focused and driven to help others. It is a beautiful thing to just listen to her talk.

Such a fun time and so cool to be a SMALL part of what this organization does...




THANK YOU MEGAN for taking time out of your CRAZY BUSY time of year to allow our little people a chance to give back.
