Sherry Hayslip
I am thankful that I have had just enough pain and hardship to give me the sense to savor and cherish all the good things that encompass my life. My husband exceeds every dream for a happy marriage I ever had; we have a dear home, dear friends, a talented and very interesting combined family that we appreciate and love. We are lucky to live in Dallas, near our work, and near so many interesting places and things to do. Life is full. Life is precious, more every day.
At work, I am constantly amazed by and appreciative of the all the people I work with. Without exception they are loyal, intelligent, positive, creative, dedicated, funny, patient with me, and inspiring and comforting to be with. Thank you each and every person. And I am thankful for the many wonderful clients that give us all an opportunity to create so much beauty and happinessin the world.
I look forward to our annual Thanksgiving dinner in all its glory and especially the special dishes that everyone brings to our office get together (yes, I am talking to you, Bree! :)) I appreciate the hard work that everyone does to make it happen and the good nature that everyone brings to insure our combined work families have a chance to share in this special event everyyear.

Peyton Hayskip
I’m thankful for my sweet daughters, my hysterical dog, and my complicated family. All of these things keep me on my toes… and when they aren’t aging me prematurely, they are keeping me young.
It would be impossible not to be thankful for the ability to work for the family companies… not only do I have the best commute in town, I am able to work with people I sincerely like every day.
My grandmother’s cheese grits is the logical answer to what am I most thankful to eat during the holidays… but since we also have that at Christmas, I’ll be more Thanksgiving meal specific. One of the things I grew up eating on Thanksgiving is cranberry jelly. The preparation of this dish is very important. I am thankful that my grandmother taught me how to prepare it perfectly every time. Carefully slide the cranberry jelly out of the can and onto a crystal dish. It should retain its can-like shape. Slice the jelly into precise beet-like circles using the indents of the can as a guide. It’s important that each end of the dish still resemble the can top and bottom. And, voila, the perfect Thanksgiving side dish!

I’m thankful for a job that allows me to contribute creatively even though I’m not a designer
I’m thankful EVERY YEAR for pumpkin pie – I know you can eat it anytime, but it’s kind of like Candy Corn for me (which I only eat between October1 and 31)… it never tastes better than on Thanksgiving
Melissa Alamilla

Even though I won't be having a Thanksgiving meal this year, I am thankful for mashed potatoes... My favorite!
Bryn Hathaway
I’m incredibly thankful for my family’s ability to remain so close emotionally considering the physical distance between each of us. They are my rock and I would never be where I am today without their constant support and love!
I’m thankful for all of the wonderful women I have the privilege of working with. I have never been part of a work environment filled with so many creative, supportive and caring people. I feel blessed to be part of the Hayslip Design family.
I am always VERY thankful for buttermilk pie onTurkey Day! It has been a tradition in my family to make (and completelydevour) at least one buttermilk pie for Thanksgiving since I can remember. YUM!
Love,
Sherry
