Happy Thanksgiving

Good Morning, All. I hope this day of thanks is finding you well. I hope that you will take some time, amid the cooking, preparing and cleaning, to enjoy this day with friends and family. Enjoy the long standing traditions enacted many years ago or perhaps this is the first year of a new tradition. If you are a host, be kind, welcoming and gracious to all guests; if you are a guest, be kind, respectful and grateful for a wonderful meal.


I am so very grateful for:
  • My relationship with Jesus. Knowing that He is ever-present in my life and that He has saved me from eternal death.
  • My wonderful family. My husband who works very hard in all areas of our life, and who is faithful to his family. My children who are beautiful, funny, and just a joy each and every day.
  • Our jobs - in this economy and every other time in our lives I'm thankful that we have an income. I pray that we will be good stewards with the funds that are provided for us.
  • Food to eat each and every day. It may not rival Olive Garden's menu, but I am thankful that we do not go to bed hungry.
  • That we are warm when it's cold and dry when it's wet. I'm thankful that our home is sufficient for us.
  • That at times there may things that we want; we always have what we need.
  • My wonderful friends and family.
And of course:

My cuppa first thing in the morning.

This is what I've accomplished so far:
That's the pumpkin and here's the apple:
And here, awaiting a good butter rub, is Tom:
The turkey, of course!

Please have a wonderful, blessed day. Travel safely and cherish every moment with your friends and family.

God Bless!

  1. Liane, I hope your day was wonderful! We had so much food, it's not even funny. I am full up to my chin. I, too, have a list of things to be thankful for. I'm very grateful for all that we have.
