So this year our Thanksgiving was a lot different than our typical Thanksgiving. We decided to stay home and just have dinner for us. Now, it was also different because "us" didn't include our two youngest children, but that's not relevant, other than that our Thanksgiving will be even better next year when they are!
So anyway, we really had a great relaxing Turkey Day (well, at least I know I enjoyed it!) and have decided that we are going to just plan to be home on Thanksgiving every year and just have a turkey dinner for the five of us. We will celebrate with our extended family on another day should we so choose to.
Here's the deal...there is a lot to try to remember from year to year and I'll be honest, my memory and brain functioning in general has suffered over the past several years, so there is NO WAY I am going to remember what recipes we used, what I modified, how much we cooked, whether we liked the recipes, whether something was too salty or too cheesy, how many leftovers we had, whether we had enough food...you get the point. So I decided that I am going to need some help with remembering each year which brought me to create this amazing little companion............

ok, seriously it's not that big of a deal, but I am actually really excited about it...
My Thanksgiving Memory Book!
No, this is not going to be a scrapbook in the typical sense...it's literally a $1 notebook, with a decorated cover where I will keep the answers to all of the questions above and probably much more so that I don't have to attempt to remember each year what we did for food, etc. Is it not adorable!!!
I am working on my Christmas one as I type this so stay tuned!
Happy Stampin'!
