Thanksgiving was the first official holiday where we got to enjoy our recently "renovated" dining room. Practically everything in the room is vintage. The table was my great grandmother's (cir. 1880's) and the chairs my grandmother's (cir. 1910's). The linen table cloth and the napkins were my grandmothers (cir. 1920's), as well as her silver. The most modern things we used were the china, which is my wife's and mine - but, in just a couple more years it will be "vintage" as well.
We had a great time with all our family together around the table. I feel truly blessed to be able to enjoy a meal with my family in a setting that has such deep and longstanding family connections.
