Happy Thanksgiving!

November 25, 2010 by Minnesota Mom Filed Under: Gratitude, Minnesota Me, Special Events 8 Comments

May your day be filled with the love of family, and may you love your family for who they are;

May your plate be full and your heart, equally so;

And may you look for laughter in those little moments…while keeping one eye on your wine glass at all times.

PS. I call this photo “Carpe Vino.” It’s Angela, of course, and was taken four years ago on Thanksgiving day.

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
