Let's face it, Thanksgiving is overlooked and under appreciated. We are so busy rushing around getting ready for the Christmas season, that we fail at truly taking time to enjoy the family traditions, and time honored celebrations of being thankful....no, being so very blessed. Take time to relish in this Thanksgiving. Remember stories and share them with the future generations. Enjoy the elegance in the day. Set the table with your "Sunday best" and make new memories for those that are to partake at your table. Treat this Thanksgiving in the respect it deserves, as we all have so much to be grateful for. Love the laughter and savor the table.
