So, we've had a change in plans for Thanksgiving this year, we usually host
about 12 -15, but my brother asked if I cared if they hosted this year.
Umm....no, that would be perfectly fine! :)
This is the best...my mom relayed to me what my sweet dad said...
"Well, what will Pam do, she needs to show the Thanksgiving table on her blog."
Too cute, huh?
I was looking forward to sharing my Thanksgiving table in fresh bright hues of
orange and green with crisp white linens and serving pieces.
Here's a peek at what would have been...
The plan was to show you how with a few simple changes I used the same pieces for
our Thanksgiving table as I did for this fancy girlfriend birthday party.
Same runner, same green geometric napkins, same white serving pieces.
You can check out the pretty party here.
I changed out roses for Pyracantha (shrub with orange berries) in my
old silver urn style trophy, added a few orange books and a small silver bowl
with fuschia mums from my yard.

Every fall I'm reminded I'd love to plant one of these Pyracantha shrubs in our yard
(mine came from a neighbor).
In my eyes, those vibrant orange berries far outweigh the multitude of sharp thorns.
I've read they are fast growers, as much as two feet per year, and the best time to plant
is fall. It's on my to-do list! Maybe next year my Thanksgiving table will be a repeat.
One week from today, Thanksgiving dinner, I can't wait!!
