in Laced With Grace, Thankful Thursday

  • I am thankful that hubby and I get to attend a wedding this week.
  • I am thankful for cool weather, it is amazing how much more energy I have when it is cooler.
  • I am thankful it is almost Thanksgiving and I get to visit my family…and Iris!
  • I am thankful I got to talk to a very special lady over the phone this week, but I can not tell you who until January….(hint…CWO January issue)
  • I am thankful we all have been home for dinner in the evening. I am loving the no football practice nights =)
  • LAST BUT NOT LEAST….WHO LIKES FREE? Want a free book? A free GREAT book? Nicole Baart author of After The Leaves Fall,

    Suga-pie—I KNOW you are glad the whole family could have dinner together! The best thing about football season? Possibly the end?
    I am so glad you get to visit family! PLEASE give Iris a real life hug for me! What an honor—if the Lord tarries His coming….I pray that He will allow me to give a few real life hugs to some awesome sisters-in-Christ—you for one! Iris for another! and if I go on—I will get in trouble because I will forget a sweet special someone —by accident!
    I love YOU! Have a GREAT time at the wedding—-be blessed and drive carefully!!! Or fly carefully….whichever!

    See now… I’m already praying for spring and it’s not even winter here yet! But that’s because I’m the world’s biggest wimp.

    But the dinners together and Thanksgiving just around the corner sounds absolutely perfect.

    It’s exciting to spend time with family, and you are visiting Iris again? What a lucky girl!
    Thanks for sharing!
    I hope your day is blessed my friend!

    Wow, I’m sure you’re already excited with the family gathering. It’s lovely to see and be with our loved ones. Thanks for sharing your list.

    Hi Laurel,

    Long time, no talk, lovely woman. I miss you! I hope all is well with you and yours. Keep in touch.

    Warmly,
    Nicole

    I enjoyed reading your list. I too am grateful that it’s cooler, but……I seem to be powered by solar batteries and there is less daylight……..less energy. We are all created uniquely. Praise God! Wouldn’t it be boring to all be the same?

    I have an award for you, come by my blog and check it out!

    Blessings to you today!

    Great list! I love family dinners too. And someday, I bet my kids will be old enough that I’ll even get to eat a HOT dinner!

    12 Susanne 11.08.07 at 2:51 pm

    Wonderful list!! I, too am thankful for the (finally) cool weather. Now it feels like fall! ;-) Thanks for sharing. Have a great day!

    Sounds like a fun thanksgiving is right around the corner for you. Blessings to you - and by the way, you’re always an encouragement.

    With a nest that is in the process of emptying, I treasure those family dinners together! I just won Nicole’s new book in a giveaway and am looking forward to reading it!

    16 Denise 11.08.07 at 8:49 pm

    Enjoyed your thankful list sweetie.

    17 Ann 11.09.07 at 2:12 pm

    I’d be thankful for family evenings resuming and football being done too! I’m not looking forward to that aspect of the school age years…

    18 Cheryl 11.09.07 at 4:50 pm

    I enjoyed visiting your blog. I understand about the football thing being over (my daughter is on dance for football). We get our evenings back huh? That feels so nice. Basketball is next for us. Thanks for sharing you thankful thoughts. Have a good weekend. God Bless!

    Laurel,

    I can’t wait to read what is going on in January at CWO. Always love to stop in here for your TT list. I feel like I get a quick cup of coffe and a short visit sitting at your kitchen table. Love you. Lynn
