Welcome to Thankful Thursday - September 6, 2012

Good Afternoon Sweet Peas,

I am early for a change, imagine that!

Hope you have been having a wonderful week.

Mine week has been good, some busy, some crazy and
some fun.............

I am thrilled today to be able to tell yall something I have
wanted to tell you since early July but couldn't, so the
day has finally arrived .........................

#1

I am very thankful

drum roll,  please

keep going

that we are gonna be.....................

" Real First Time Grandparents",

and not of the furry sort....Scott and Megan

are expecting next March 5th, 2013.  We are

all so excited in fact, beyond excited.  It has

been very hard waiting to tell yall,  but they

only were telling family and close friends till

they got thru the first trimester, so was trying

to be a good girl...........and not spill the beans! 

But they are spilt now............lol
We are soooo looking forward to this.............

#2

I am thankful

for a really fun Labor Day Celebration at

Scott and Megans new home.  Scott made

Lasagna and it was really delicious,  and it

was fun to watch them be so hospitable in

their new home.  They even sent us home

with lasagna................Loved that too!

They found out Megan was pregnant the
day after they put the offer in on their new
home, so it was so great that they were
able to move in so quickly.  It will be a
few more week before they find out
what gender it is...........
so more fun to look forward to!!

#3

I am thankful

for some really great talks hubby and I have

had lately,  just talking about life and thinking

about things we will do when he retires.  

Fun Stuff to think about!

#4

I am thankful

again for this Sunday School class that we are

in, as he gives us homework every week and 

these are some of the things he tells us to talk

about,  so his questions are really good for 

generating great conversation.

#5

I am thankful

that hubby was able to get our computer up

and running by Tuesday night,  as we had a power

 surge on Monday night and it knocked out several

things on the computer!  We had a surge protector

too,  but hubby thinks it must of taken one too many

hits,  so had to get a new one,  and a new wireless

router as well,  and he was able to work at home

on Wednesday since it was up and running.

#6

I am thankful

for the lil bit cooler mornings we have been having,

in the 70's and lasts till about 9:30 or so.  On Tuesday

I hosed down the whole front of the house getting it

ready for Fall decorations.  It was so nice out and

just loved being able to be out there in the cool

with a bit of a breeze.  Was some brief moments

of Fallish weather.  Glorious!!

#7

I am thankful

that I have gotten all of my coastal stuff taken down

and hopefully will pack it up today,  and start on

putting up the Fall things...............looking forward

to it.............so ready for Fall Weather.  Wish it

automatically appeared when I put up the decorations,

but at least it will seem like Fall inside.............lol

#8

I am thankful
I heard from my uncle that lives near New Orleans
this morning,  and they have no damage, thank the
Lord.....and he is already back to work in New 
York...........so that was great news.


#9
I am thankful
that my sweet friend Becky over at Timewashed
 is selling tons of her fabulous pumpkins in her etsy 
shop.  If  you have never been there..............
just click here!  But make sure when you get 
there you look on her right side bar for her etsy 
shop,  then click on timewashed, at the bottom 
of the pictures.

Also wanted to tell you she is starting a new
 linky party called "Flaunt your linens Friday".
It starts Sept. 15th, 2012.  So be looking up
your special linens...................


#10
I am thankful
for sweet blog friends that are always so willing
to help you out when you have questions or 
need information.  My Thanks to Terri and
Sonny for their sweet help this week.
Blessings Abundant to you both!!


#11
I am thankful
for a new green bean recipe I got from Sonny
today,  so can't wait to make it for tonight.
It is for Roasted Green Beans,  have roasted
lots of veggies but never green beans,  so this
will be a fun new experience for me.



#12
I am thankful
that when we pray about something that is
troubling us, that we can count on the Lord
to help us with it,  and many times give us
a whole new perspective,  I have experienced
that today,  and what a JOY!!
God is always so good................

#13
I am thankful
I will get to have lunch with Dee tomorrow
since she is working closer by this month,
so looking forward to that!


That concludes my list for the week.
I know you probably have plenty
of your own thankfuls.......and
if you feel so led,  share a few with
us, want you!

So glad you dropped by, always
enjoy hearing from you so much.

Have a Great Weekend,

Love, Hugs,
and Baby Blessings to ya!

Nellie
