I am so excited about starting this book of thanks this year!
This awesome idea originally came from eighteen25.
Every year on Thanksgiving, we will take a group picture with those we are celebrating Thanksgiving dinner. We will each write what we are thankful for on the same page. I love that this will become a precious family keepsake.
I made this book using my binding machine.
It's filled with 30 cardstock pages, enough to last 30 years.
The front page is filled with sentiments of gratitude found courtesy of Pinterest.
Last year we started a gratitude countdown that worked so well for us we will still do it this year.
We did this one each day of November during dinner. The ladybug really loved doing this. You can find more about this HERE. It surprised me that she got more excited over this than the October candy countdown! It was a pleasant surprise!
I love finding new holiday traditions. If you have any you'd like to share, comment below, or come link it up at the Craft Catwalk.
love these ideas!!
