What Thanksgiving Means to Us

It’s time to give thanks. At Contract Exteriors, we have plenty to be thankful for. In many ways, this has been a tough year for the Carolina Coast, but I’ve never been more thankful to live and work here.

I know I speak for all of us when I say we’re thankful for our community. Our friends, family, and neighbors in Charleston and Myrtle Beach have proven their kindness, compassion, and love for The Carolina Coast many times over. There’s nowhere else we’d rather live, work, and play.

 

We’re also thankful for you, the homeowners we work with every day. You trust us with your beautiful homes, and we get to do what we love with every new shingle and every new piece of siding.

Thank you for your business.

We’re also thankful for our friends and families. In this post, we asked several of our team members to write just a little bit about their favorite Thanksgiving foods, memories, and traditions. We wanted to give you a peek into our lives, because we believe a business is only as good as the people behind it.

We want to get to know you better, too. Head on over to our Facebook page and leave a commentabout your favorite Thanksgiving foods, traditions, memories, and what you’re thankful for. We’ll respond to each and every one.

My dad is a great cook, and his stuffing is amazing! It is a French Canadian traditional stuffing and I look forward to it every year.

My other favorite part of the Thanksgiving meal is his homemade pecan pie.

Jennifer

Before dinner, while everyone else is watching football, I scan through the Black Friday ads and plan my shopping spree.

My mother-in-law’s homemade macaroni and cheese is my favorite Thanksgiving dish.

Kate

Once we are all seated around the table, before we eat, we take turns saying what we are thankful for.

I love the giblet gravy that is made from my Grandmother Inga’s recipe.

Michelle

I love watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade, especially the beginning when all the musical numbers are performed!

My favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner is the scalloped potatoes that my mother makes.

Matt

Every Thanksgiving, our family gets together and plays touch football before dinner.

My favorite dish is the stuffing made using my Grandmother’s recipe.

Eugenia

The night before Thanksgiving, our family and friends get together at my Aunt’s house for an oyster roast.

My favorite dishes are the homemade macaroni and cheese and green bean casserole that I make using my Grandmother’s recipes.

Greg

All the kids in my family make the fruit salad for Thanksgiving dinner, this has been a tradition for 30 years.

I’m Irish, so my favorite dish is the mashed potatoes.

Debbie

For our Thanksgiving, my sister, daughter, and their families come to my home for dinner. Everyone contributes a side dish, and we provide the turkey.

My favorite part of the meal is the fried turkey my husband makes.

 

We can’t mention it enough-- we’re thankful for you. You’re the great people who make our jobs a joy and our community an amazing place to live. We look forward to each new day on the job because of you.
