A couple of months ago, on a hot summer day, I shot a Thanksgiving story with Sarah & Murray Bancroft. Sarah is the editor-in-chief of VitaminDaily and Murray is a talented chef and food stylist. Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving in October - right around the corner and I can't wait.
Thought I'd share some of the day with you...
Sarah and Murray's daughters, Emmanuelle and Charlotte, help with dinner by digging up potatoes from the garden.
The "kid's table" decorated in deep oranges and pinks. Plates and bed spread (used as a table cloth) from The Cross.
Emerson digs into her Pear Tarte Tatin.
The menu.
Sarah sets the table for dinner.
For Sarah's tips on entertaining with kids, and loads more pics, click here or pick up the October issue of Today's Parent. The recipes are fantastic!

Beautiful! We had volunteer potatoes this year... it was so exciting digging them up! :)
Ooooh! Are those Bocci pendants over the dining table in the last image?!
I really like the deep mauves and purples paired with earthy neutrals in your top images.
Lovely all around, thanks for sharing :)
I love the kid's table idea - super cute! :) x
Gorgeous shots!

I love the "Grown-up's" table in the last image, such a sturdy piece.
The Germans celebrate 'Erntedankfest' (Harvest Festival/Thanksgiving) in October, too, unlike others in November. ;)
P.S.: I always find it funny how magazine's shoot certain Holidays beforehand. But in the shots you can (sometimes clearly) see(or rather feel?) that the sun light(-source) is not the way it would look like, if it had been shot at the right time of the Holiday.
P.P.S.: Their Daughters look cute. *tütütü* Nazar olmasın! ^_^
In this case, it would be an honour to sit a the kid's table. ;) The menu sure looks scrumdillyicious!
Your shots are so gorgeous! Love those purple potatoes. The styling is so pretty. And what a lovely home! :)
So many great ideas! Heading over to read the article!
ooooo all of those purples are beautiful.

Hi Janis!

Have a great day!
