And although as a new bride, hosting Thanksgiving was something I didn't even think about, I knew someday that the turkey would be perfect for the Thanksgiving table!
And he was!!! So much so, that I decided that I needed two!!!!
A bit of a change from an October table to a November one.
The turkeys will reside on the table until all of the fall finery is put away to be replaced by Christmas.
It's nice to have keep traditions -- even some as silly as these turkeys.
It's also Tuesday which means that Marty at A Stroll Thru Life is hosting Tabletop Tuesday. What better tabletop for the first day of November that turkeys!!!! Join her and see what is on everyone's tabletop this Tuesday!

Oh I love your turkeys. I don't have a single one, can you imagine. lol They are lovely with the flowers and the bowl with your beautiful berries and gourds is stunning. A perfect centerpiece. Thanks so much for linking to TTT. Hugs, Marty
I like turkeys too. Real and decorative. I raised turkeys one year as a child. First, in a small box in the house. Then, in a pen on the lawn with a shelter box; and eventually to roam the farm and roost in the barn at night. They thought I was their mother. When I went outside, I could "call" them and they'd follow me everywhere. My mom said if she wanted to find me that summer, she only had to look for the turkeys! Right after we were married, we lived in a tiny town near a creek and wild turkeys roosted in the evergreens behind our house. I think they just knew I liked turkeys. These days, I stick to decorative ones. You're are adorable.
Love them!
Cute! I just got out my pilgrims. Gotta love this time of year.
We've put all our Thanksgiving things away and you're taking yours out. Well, it extends the season for all of us, doesn't it?!
Traditions are very nice. Helps keep us grounded, I think. Love your turkeys!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your turkey's Martha and how wonderful that you found a pair. I just added in to my Fall things several Turkey's as well. This was my chore for yesterday. Taking down Halloween and replacing with Thanksgiving.
