Happy Tuesday -- it's time for another Celebrate the Occasion challenge! This week's theme is Thanksgiving with the requirement to use a punch. I've made so many turkeys lately that I wanted to take a departure for this challenge. So I used another animal we see quite often in November -- squirrels!
