Thanksgiving Tablecloth

About five years ago my Mom started a new Thanksgiving tradition. She bought a white tablecloth and fabric markers. Each year everyone in attendance at the Thanksgiving meal signs the tablecloth and writes what they are thankful for and the year. After five years and many Thanksgiving guests, the tablecloth is getting pretty full. The tradition has been so much fun that I’ve shared it with friends and co-workers who have adopted similar traditions for their own families. It’s so much fun to look back at the tablecloth each year and see what people wrote from previous years. It’s also fun to see how the grandkids handwriting has changed throughout the years.
