Pictures of Thankfulness

Well Thanksgiving has come and gone for us here in the North.  But I have to say it was the most fabulous Thanksgiving weekend in a long time!  I mean the weather was out of this world, it was sunny, hot, breezy, sunny - to the point that we actually ate one (of our three!) Thanksgiving dinners out doors!

So we were blessed with much family, way to much food and amazing weather! 


I took copious photos this weekend and wish to share all my thankfulness in the form of a visual feast.  Get a cup of something hot, sit back, light a candle and come along and share in my weekend of Thanksgiving.






I am Thankful for....




...beautiful flowers...

 ...homemade red pepper jelly and crusty bread.  Small silly dogs and the people who love them!

....tomatoes still ripening on the vine in October and even more thankful for 'fresh from the vine', tomatoes, being served for supper.

 Little nephews!

Family from out of town.....

and the sweet treats they bring with them!

 And canned cranberries, that look just that!  ;)

I am Thankful for...

...dear friends who invite us to partake in their family feast.  For their faith and the sharing of it!

The faith of little children!

The blessing of setting a place for our children.

And friends who can always make you smile. :)

I am Thankful for....






....children at play.....

... and family games of ring toss.

Tire swings and the kid in all of us.

More games and more family.

Sweet smiles....

...and young love! ♥

All of God's creatures....well most of them.  ;)

And for all the beauty around me, even in my very own backyard.

Last, but most definitely not least.....

I will give you thanks, for you answered me; you have become my salvation.

Psalm 118:21
