Thankful Thursday March 3, 2016, 1st Spring Tablescape

So then, just as you received 

Christ Jesus as Lord, continue

 to live your lives in him, rooted 

and built up in him, strengthened 

in the faith as you were taught, and

 overflowing with thankfulness. 

Colossians 2:6 and 7

Hello Sweet Friends,

Welcome to March!!

What cha' been up to lately??

Anything crazy or fun??

It has been a bit crazy at our house,

things are sort of turned upside down 

in the last week or so....Moving out

 our old bed, and then sleeping in our

 guest bedroom, with bedding coming

 out of our ears, between the new and 

old, and can't decide what to keep or

 get rid of until the new bed gets here...

So we will happily be glad to get back

 to normal maybe here in the next

 week or so.

I was ready for a change with our red

Valentine's living room,  so turned it

into a green and white living room in

honor of St. Patricks Day.  So will show

you some pictures next week probably.

Today thought I would show you my

first Spring tablescape for this year.

So......on with Thankful Thursday!!

With colored pencil affect

I am thankful


#1
for a lovely time with dear friends on 
Friday evening.  It was our past Pastor 
and his wife, that I told you about before.
They come down every Winter. So had 
them over for dinner, hence the Spring
 table.  Always such a delight to see them,
and hoping to do this a few more times
before they go back the end of March.

#2
for a really sweet time over at Scott and
 Megans on Sunday,  celebrating my Sweet
 Sister-in law's birthday. They volunteered
 to have it at their home this year, and did a 
great job I might add....they have become 
such a wonderful host and hostess.

#3
that our bed is going to be delivered today.
We had to postpone it last week due to 
some logistic issues.  So looking forward
to sleeping in it tonight!!

Update: Well it came, but we wound
up sending it back for a number of
reasons. It was disappointing but, we
 think the Lord maybe spared us from
 a not so good deal........

It was an adjustable bed, and we have
 already found some what we think might
 be better and less expensive options.
So we are feeling rescued!  lol
Cause everything happens for a reason.
and eventually we will get a bed!!! 
Just not this week.............lol

#4
that I finally found a light quilt that I really
like to go on the new bed. I thought that 
would be easy,  but not so......I had a tough
 time finding something I really liked that
 went with my colors,  as I am not up for
 repainting my bedroom.

#5
for chicken and dumplings my sweet
 neighbor brought us on Wednesday.  
Yum!

 Posterized Affect

#6

that the same sweet neighbor was able to 

get a new computer,  not that we minded

 her using ours at all...........but it is so much

 easier for her now, to get her schooling 

done whenever she has the time or wants

 to...Which I am sure makes life much 

less stressed for her......

#7

that our kitty, Molly  didn't seem to have

 any worse symptoms than she did before...

as she had another mini stroke this week.

This is her 4th one, and each time her

 eyesight and hearing seems to be less 

and less,  but this time we haven't

 noticed any changes other than the

 initial listing/walking funny at first.

Course, she is pretty much deaf at this

 point and is not seeing well, cause

 sometimes she runs into things,

 poor baby.

#8

for my blow dryer........can you tell I 

just did my hair!!  lol

Seriously tho, my hair would sure be

a mess without it.

#9
for white dishes..........I really love any-
thing white, but I especially love 
white dishes........

#10

for our lil Granddaughter Brooklyn,

better known as our lil darling!! lol

She is definitely a gift straight from 

heaven, and has added so much joy 

to our lives. She will be 3 yrs. old

 tomorrow.  (Friday).

She is having some outtings with

Mom and Dad on Fri. and Sat. to

celebrate her big day, and then

 we will celebrate she and hubbies

birthday on Sunday here at

 our house.

Happy Birthday Brooklyn!!

#11

for my hubby of 45+ years.  He

is also a gift straight from heaven.

I am truly a blessed woman to have

him as my hubby all these years.

Happy Birthday Honey!!

#12
that I have both of their gifts bought
 and wrapped already and their table
 planned mostly, still working on what
 to use as a centerpiece, and know what
I am making for dinner, and dessert,
 just have to make it of course.  lol

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Well........that's been  my week.

Hope you enjoyed your visit......

So glad you  took the time to stop
 in for a bit..........


Have a Fabulous Friday 
and weekend, with your
 loved ones or friends.

Keep your light shining brightly!



Love, Hugs and March Blessings,

Nellie
