As reported by ABC News, last year, Deb Mills of Clinton, Missouri began a holiday tradition that has become the pride of their family and the talk of the whole town, and perhaps, the nation. She says a lot of her friends have also started the same tradition inspired by her. So what is this tradition?
Each person who joins her family’s Thanksgiving dinner, gets to sign the white table cloth. She then hand-embroider the signatures over the winter months to make the tablecloth a true keepsake. She told ABC news:
“We are a blended family, and we set out to make some very special family traditions that are all our own,” she told ABC News of her unique idea. “Back in 2000, I got out this plain white tablecloth, and put it on the table, and my teenage kids looked at me like I was crazy when I said, ‘I want you to sign this tablecloth.’ Then a few years later, the [grandchildren] came along, and now we have 16 years of memories on the tablecloth.”
