Our Canadian Thanksgiving is this weekend! On Saturday we will watch my son play in his high school football game, the "Turkey Bowl". :turkey2:
Sunday we will "celebrate the harvest" and have dinner (Monday is officially Thanksgiving).
My porch is decorated with a scarecrow, pumpkins, straw bale and corn stalks. The mantle has squash and dried corn with candles. My dining room table is simply set to make room for all the food
low candles in mason jars filled with popcorn and beans, a few mini pumpkins, napkins in cranberry and gold.
