Parental Units on the Paternal Side have already assisted us with Tablecloths and a table

Husband shopped for the majority of the goodies today. I picked up the coffees, since Tinkerbell won't be here to do it. We started cleaning today, too. The turkey rests in the refrigerator, the tablecloths and napkins have been through the laundry, and the sides and appetizers will be on my list over the next few days so we're not too overwhelmed to socialize on Thursday.

I think we'll make it. Gobble gobble!!
