George A. Martinez, Family Law Attorney: Thanksgiving Tablescape

Wow, we are already heading fast into the Thanksgiving season. The leaves are growing more intense with color and eventually falling off the trees. Families gather up the colorful leaves and enjoy the tradition of jumping into leaf piles. At the top of the hill, you can take a sneak peek into the old farm house and see Thanksgiving dinner, hot on the table with all the trimmings. Down the hill, outside the barn, you can see a large Tom Turkey spreading his wings; thankful he escaped being that evening’s meal. As you wind down the hill from the top of Harvest Apple Orchard, past the kids picking out last minute pumpkins, and along the road side fruit and vegetable stands you will see a family on their way to Grandma’s house. Mom is carrying her country fair, award winning, turkey stuffing, while her son attempts to fend off “Spot”, the family dog, from biting into the hot apple pie.
