It is good to praise the Lord
and make music to your name,
O Most High,
to proclaim your love in the morning
and your faithfulness at night
Psalm 92:1-2

Evening Sweet Friends,

I am a day late and a dollar short as they say.
This has just really been a busy week for me,
a really good week, but certainly way busier
than my usual.  I am finishing this up in between
wii tennis games!  lol
Sorry I don't have as many pic as usual.........
but I knew you would live..............lol

Hope all is well with you and 
yours! and  you will sorta see what
 our week has been like..................

#1

I am thankful

for our new to us, Van.  We have been looking

for awhile,  and Saturday we finally hit on one

that sounded great for us,  so we went to see

it and wound up coming home with her!

She is a 2008 Toyota Sienna with 60,000 miles 

but looks like a brand new Van.  She drives like

 a dream, and we really love her!!

I have nicknamed her Whitey,  cause she is

white and I have wanted a white car forever

it seems like!  So I am so excited, and just
love driving her.

#2

I am thankful

for all the wonderful service and enjoyment

that our old 19 year Van gave us,  and altho,

it is time for her to go,  I shall miss her too. lol

We made some wonderful memories in that Van.

#3

I am thankful

that we got our garage hoed out enough to....

 to get Whitey in there.  As we had given up

on getting our other car back in there just do

to circumstance after circumstance...............

Still have work to do out there,  and glad this

is giving us the incentive as it has been driving

me crazy for awhile now,  but was just waiting

for cooler weather.  

#4

I am thankful

for places like Hospice and Good Will that you

can take good used things to rather than just

throw them out,  cause I don't like to waste things,

but am not really wanting to have a garage sale,

plus I like giving it to a good cause anyway.

#5

I am thankful

for Hospice,  as they were like angels of mercy

when my Father-in-law had cancer years ago.

A great organization....................

#6

I am thankful

for a good bible study lesson today,  and a fun

day out doing some grocery shopping,  and 

going to Michael's and the Dollar Tree, and

having a Chocolate Elvis..............ummmm

(I started this post yesterday afternoon late,
so most all of this post was done yesterday
but a few.)

#7

I am thankful

that I found some really neat card embellishments

today at a great price,  and for just $2.43 I got

like 25 of them,  typically,  you get about 8-10

for $3.99...............works for me!!

#8

I am thankful

that I have learned quite a bit on the new card

software program,  and have completed 3 cards

now,  and am very happy with them.  Lots more

to learn yet,  but it's coming along................

#9

I am thankful

that hubby found a psalm this morning that
he feels we should claim for our country.
I couldn't agree more.........it is Psalm 125.
If you get a chance read it, as you might
want to pray it and claim it for our country
too..........................
and How bout that Romney................
didn't he do an awesome job!!  


#10
I am thankful

that we are going to be finding out the Gender

of our new grandchild to be, on Sat. Oct. 13th.

Scott and Megan are having a baby gender party

where you find out what gender it is by cutting

the cake, if it is pink - it's a girl,  if it is blue, then

of course, it's a boy............hope they don't make a

 mistake and make it green or something crazy,

that would be something!!  Best be praying on

that one..............lol

#11

I am thankful

that Megan is coming along well,  and they have

heard babies heart beat a number of times now.

She is feeling a lil better too,  but still pretty tired.

She is 18 weeks now,  I think it is.............

#12

I am thankful
for a nice morning out with Becky, our lil punkin 
maker from over at Junk to Joy, or Time Washed, 
 I think she calls it now.......I am having trouble keeping
 up with the name! Can you tell!!  lol  We went to Cracker
 Barrel and we both had a great breakfast and fun time
yakking and catching up. Seems like ages since we have
seen each other..................so it was a blessing!
Course, it is always a blessing to spend time with her!


Well, that is my list for this week.........
hope you have a nice list of your own.

Thanks for coming by.........................
Tell us what you are thankful for ........
would love to hear!!

Love, Hugs, and
 Sweet Fall Blessings,
Nellie
