For all of her adult life, Sherie has hosted Thanksgiving dinner at her home for all of her family to enjoy. It's never been too much work because she loves it. Thanksgiving is her favorite holiday!
Though her health did not allow her to prepare for the big day this year, having Thanksgiving at her home was still going to happen. Her kids, Rich and Ashley, willingly took the reigns to prepare for a beautiful Thanksgiving holiday. Rich masterfully prepared a superb sage-infused buttered turkey roasted to perfection while Ashley prepared several Mom-approved side dishes and pumpkin pie to add to the scrumptious potluck feast! And though Sherie's appetite is sparse, she promised to try at least one bite of everything. As it turned out, she really enjoyed the stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, and a small sliver of pumpkin pie! Her Thanksgiving was very peaceful and relaxing. In total, 16 family members congregated under one roof to celebrate life and give thanks for all that has been given. Several heartfelt toasts were given and a few tears shed. For such a large party of guests, the evening was rather intimate. Thanksgiving for the Hildreth's this year was extra special and will never be forgotten.
