"Give me the end of the year an' its fun
When most of the plannin' an' toilin' is done;
Bring all the wanderers home to the nest,
Let me sit down with the ones I love best,
Hear the old voices still ringin' with song,
See the old faces unblemished by wrong,
See the old table with all of its chairs
An' I'll put soul in my Thanksgivin' prayers."

So beautiful, Thanksgiving is my favorite time of the year. So many of my family is gone and I want to make sure all the upcoming generation continue with our beautiful gathering every year.
