November 25

This sweet little turkey was made my cousin Nick's daughters, Lexie and Kenna. Seeing the girls walk in to Thanksgiving at Grandpa's house with these made me want to cry all the while putting a big smile on my face. Every Thanksgiving Grandma Dalene would make the candy turkeys. One for each place setting at the table. When Grandma Passed away in 2007, we were faced with our first Thanksgiving without Grandma's turkeys, but instead two out of the three aunts produced their own batch, not knowing that the other was bring turkeys. As time goes by, some of those wonderful memories of past holidays get further into the distance, but is beyond touching to see them revitalized and remembered years later, especially by the sweet children who are the last of the kiddos to have a memory of the original Grandma turkeys.
