Thankful Thursday



Things I'm Thankful For Today:

1. That when I listen and obey God, He works! Not a real profound thought I know, but it never ceases to amaze me!

2. For the season of Autumn! I love the crispness and coolness in the air. I love getting out clothes that haven't been worn in months. I love putting up my fall decorations. I love that I feel like cooking and baking again.

3. My husband and I are going to get away for a few days next week. We are going to the mountains and staying in a very cool hotel. I'll post more about it next week.

4. Last Sunday my two married daughters and I spent the afternoon sewing and visiting and it was so nice to just spend that kind of time with them. My sons-in-law and my husband spent the afternoon sighting in their rifles. They had just as good of a time as we did. I love days like that!

5. My church family who are always supportive and loving and hard-working.

6. Evenings when I don't have a meeting or activity to attend. I can just stay home and catch up on housework and sewing and reading.

I love Fall too - I have been baking up a storm! It is so wonderful to be able to enjoy cooking again.

Have a really nice time away with your husband. I am counting the days until Daniel and I have our mini vacation. It is so important to have that time together.

Glad you had that special time with your daughters - it is such a relationship builder - I really enjoy the times I have like that with my mom, though they are few and far between.

Have a wonderful week!

Robin I so want to be at your house!!! I LOVE the fall!!!
I hope that you and your husband have a wonderful time! Jeff and I plan to get away to North Georgia mountains next month! (I need to catch up on some sewing! I still have ONLY the one panel sewn on my dust ruffle! How bad is that!!)
You bless me so much!

Hi Robin,
Fall is absolutely my FAVORITE time of year, though we don't have one in Texas. I think it would be wonderful to live where you are and experience the seasons in their fullness! I hope you and your husband have a wonderful trip...I know you will!
Look forward to hearing about it!

I didn't comment on your post yesterday? That is wierd because I read it ... yesterday. So anyhoo ... I was THINKING, yesterday, how nice it was go have daughters to sew with. How really, really nice. Someday perhaps I'll have daughters in law to sew with. If they sew. I hope they do.
