A Time For Giving Thanks

We have a holiday to give thanks for the things that we have in our lives,  we call this holiday Thanksgiving.  We are thankful for the food that we set before our families on this day,  we give thanks that we have our homes to live in,  but most of all we give thanks for our families.

Little Jo's Doll party in a blog about the adventures of the dolls of our ten (ten as of this morning) grand daughters. Each of the doll is named for a grand daughter.  The dolls all live at Grandma's house helping her in the garden and around the house.
