A Virtual Thanksgiving Feast
More and more I am beginning to feel like Thanksgiving is just a hiccup between the two super holidays of Halloween and Christmas. With Christmas hot on its tail, Thanksgiving almost seems to get lost in the shuffle. Rather than reflecting on its true significance, Thanksgiving’s unofficial purpose is to serve as the office kick off to the Christmas season.
In celebration of the true meaning of Thanksgiving, I have rounded up some of the best Thanksgiving links to help you really celebrate the holiday in style.

Thanks for some of the great ideas. I feel that most of the holidays are losing there real meaning for most people. I hope I can help my kids to understand that all these special days are celebrated for some very special reasons. Not just to get gifts and go crazy.
