Thank You Jar


Here is a fun tradition that our extended family participates in at Thanksgiving.  On November 1st, each family puts out a "Thank You" jar at their house so that family members can drop a note in when they are thankful for something. 

On Thanksgiving day, everyone takes their jar full of notes to my mom's house for our Thanksgiving meal.  After we eat dinner, the notes are combined in one big bowl which gets passed around the table during dessert.  Each family member pulls out a note and reads it aloud to the table until all the notes are gone.  Its a great reminder of what we all are thankful for during the holiday season!
