Punkin Turkey :)

Every year I turn a pumpkin into a turkey using these fun wood pieces my son cut out for me many years ago. My sweet sister-in-law gave me this huge awesome white pumpkin ~ I think he's just the perfect greeter for my front porch :) A dear friend shared this tidbit at our small group Bible study Sunday night and I just love it ( sure to become my newest fridge magnet!)~
"What if you woke up today with only the things you thanked God for yesterday?"
Food for thought as we gather for Thanksgiving :)

so much to be thankful for

I made a few of these for my *homies* to let them know how thankful I am for their friendship ~ I love this time of year! It was good to use up some of my hoarded bg paper ~ I must have gotten a super deal on it because I had alot of it! I generated the saying on my computer. The 3D hearts and strip were punched. Praying that you all have a blessed day Thursday ~ no matter what our circumstances are, there is ALWAYS something to be thankful for :) ><>

Preparing for Advent :)

We have a lovely tradition at our church of kicking off the Advent season (next Sunday!) with a Ladies Candlelight Dessert event. Our gymnasium is transformed into a beautiful sparkly fellowship hall. Some of our more *adventurous* menfolk serve as waiters...each year it's something new...this year our waiters were all German for the evening. I had the honor of hosting a table...I just love this evening ( so much fun!) and seeing everyone so excited for the Advent season...preparing our hearts to make room for the Baby Jesus ><>

Thank You !

To all who serve and have served our great country ~ your sacrifice is appreciated more than mere words can express. We truly are the Land of the Free because of the Brave. I hope to cross paths with someone today that I can shake hands with and express my grattitude :)
