In view of the holiday, I wanted you to know how much hosting your party each week (615 of them!) is truly appreciated. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Thank you for hosting Marty, Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanks for hosting, Marty. Have a lovely Thanksgiving with your family!
Thank you for hosting such a great party, Marty! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Marty, love that skinny tree. Talk about trees, we just had a huge one removed as part of the landscape makeover at our new home (sharing). Thank you for the party, especially on this busy holiday week. Happy Thanksgiving, Marty.
Thanks so much for featuring my tree stand box, Marty! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

We put up a skinny tree this year, as our little efficiency apartment is so small! They do require a bit of thought in placing the ornaments and lights. But I love having a tree standing on the floor over one on a table. Most likely from my childhood when all of us (5 kids in the family!) sat under the tree for photos on Christmas morning. Thank you for hosting, and have a very Happy Thanksgiving.
Love all your features. However, Marty, it looks like I’m the only person that could not link to “How to Decorate a Skinny Tree”. I was able to access each of the other features. Could you send me a link, please?
Marty, thank you so much for featuring my gravy tips. Happy Thanksgiving to you!
Thanks for hosting! Have a blessed Thanksgiving Marty!
Thanks for hosting and I hope that you have a wonderful week.
