Thanksgiving, a most favorite holiday in the Hess household, was filled with preparing, cooking, setting table, eating, and games. Not to mention all the laughing, teasing, and downright family fun!
Desserts were baked the night before (Pumpkin pie was still in the oven when this was taken)

| Apple Cobbler and Shoofly Pie |
The table is set with great-grandma's china and our wedding silver...
Dinner is served!
Friday marked the kickoff of our Broadway in Tucson series with the classic Cole Porter show, "Anything Goes." What fun and frolic....super performance!
My weekend was complete on Saturday as friends and family celebrated my birthday. It was a big one this year ~ "65" ~ hello Medicare!
We enjoyed a fabulous meal at the fabulous Fleming's Prime Steakhouse...
I don't discuss "gifts" on my blog, but I must share something very special with you. After dinner, we came home to enjoy birthday cake and open cards and gifts.
Our Kiki won a gift card from her employer to none other than Tiffany's. The sisters used the gift card to purchase a precious silver necklace for my birthday! My heart is touched by their generosity and selflessness. We "did good," Ron!
It's time to go heat up leftovers and get my feet planted firmly on the ground. Two weeks until my Trunk Show and lots to do!
I'm wishing you a week filled with thanksgiving and continued blessings. Please know how I treasure you!
