Thankful Thursday

 We're getting closer all the time to the big day. Next week we'll be celebrating Thanksgiving here in the U.S.

So lets talk turkey. Remember that turkey I bought a couple weeks ago at a craft show?


There were questions about him when I posted him. Here he is standing next to the front door to give you an idea of how tall he is. I also measured him and he stands about 32" high. He does stand, and doesn't hang on a wall. He sits next to my front door now but next Thursday I will put him out on the front porch for the day.
