This morning I went to Church and since it was All Saint's Day, the names of departed souls were printed in the Church bulletin. It always makes me sad to see my daddy's name there...still can't believe he's gone! I lifted up prayers for several close friends who are ill, my family members, close friends, and several social network friends, whom I've never even met.

"The Roost" is ready for Thanksgiving...
Autumn wreath is on the front door...
The tree is decorated with turkeys...
Old glory on the tree top...
Faith, Family, Friends...
Little feathered turkeys all over the tree!
This afternoon, I'm actually doing some planning for Thanksgiving...favors, treats, Thanksgiving Feast menu, et cetera...
The cornacopia is out...
Love my cornacopia!
Jazzed up the mirror with this feathered wreath...
I'll probably give out more of these gifts for Thanksgiving...Turkey Spice Rub!
I'm very OCD...organized to the hilt. Plan. Plan. Plan.
Organizing the platters, dinnerware, and serveware.
The kitchen is set up with some Thanksgiving decos...
Kitchen table...
Mums...Lord, I've already killed about 5 mums this season!
Thanksgiving dessert on the sideboard a few years back.
Thanksgiving tablescape...pilgrims and turkeys.
Most definitely will have the same leftover plan...white gift box, autumn tone shred, plastic plate, with the leftovers to take home.
Leftovers...ready to go...raffia and cute Thanksgiving tag!
Are you skipping over Thanksgiving this year? Is your home already decorated for Christmas? Don't be ashamed! Lord, in years past, I've been known to already have ten Christmas trees up and decorated by this date!

Well, you are certainly way ahead of the game. Your house looks lovely.
Everything looks beautiful! I especially love "Old Glory"! :o)
I adore your decorations!!!! I wish I had your eye for detail.
Well, I have two holidays goin' on at my house! I leave my fall decor up until the day after Thanksgiving, BUT I already have 5 Christmas up throughout the upstairs and starting putting the lights outdoors. I will not turn the Christmas decor until 11-25-11 except for the occassional sparkle of a tree. I spend sooo much time getting ready for Christmas, I hafta start early!
Lovely as always.
Beautiful as always. I am in awe of your holiday trees. Love it! I want to start that tradition next year.
Your decorations are lovely! Thank you for the inspiration. Have a happy week!

I must confess that I did drag some Christmas boxes out last night. :) I still have my Thanksgiving/Fall decor out also... No major Christmas decorating will happen until after Thanksgiving!
Love your blog! keep up the good work!
I'm not skipping Thanksgiving either! It's Turkey Time! I love your cornucopia and turkey tree. Like the leftovers box idea too!
