Thankful Thursday June 30th, 2016, nature scenes

 Give praise to the LORD,

 proclaim his name;

 make known among the

 nations what he has done.

1 Chronicles 16:8

Happy Thursday Sweet Friends,

Bet you are all getting prepared for

the 4th of July since it is just a few

days away.

We still haven't made any plans,

am thinking about calling some

old and dear friends that we

 haven't seen for awhile, so will
see if that works out, as Scott,
 Megan and lil darling have had 
plans for a while now...........
it may just wind up just me and 
the Mister... which is fine too!!
We have been invited over to 
our neighbors house for a 4th
of July celebration but it is
on Sunday, not Monday!


 Just decided to add some nature 
pics today!! Make sure to click
on one of the pics to enlarge
them all for better viewing
pleasure.

I am thankful

#1

that we were able to get a quick
 estimate for rescreening our porch
 and it was less than we expected.

Which is rare, it is typically way
 more than we expect since we are 
used to doing most things ourselves.

#2

that hubby has gotten to work at
 home all week,  and will have a 4 
day weekend as well, so that is a

nice lil break from driving and
 working for him.

Sandhill cranes, we get them
around here ocassionally


#3

that I finally got my permanent
crown put in on Tuesday, so my 
dental sage is over for now
at least.......Whoo Hoo....
 Very happy about that!!



#4
for a chocolate pudding dessert
I made this week.  Just graham
crackers and pudding....
Delectable...........

This was a shot from our
backyard


#5
that the place where we get frozen 
yogurt on Sunday's (Yomii) gives
 reward points as well, so we found 
out recently that we have racked
up $50 worth of free yogurt.......so
 we will be getting lots of free yogurt
 for awhile.  Gotta Love that!!


#6
for Yomii's strawberry and now
their new pineapple yogurt. Both
 are so refreshing and so delicious in
 this hot weather and best of all...... 
it cools me right off!!

These lil cuties are Ibis and we get
to see them in our yard ocassionally too.



#7
that our friend came today (Wed.)
and rescreened our porch and it looks 
so nice.  Now we can clean the floor
 and start getting it back together 
finally...........
Very excited about that!


#8
that doing the porch is one more
thing off our to do list before
hubby retires...............lol

This was a goat we saw while
driving around.....thought he
was cute.......



#9
that as I am writing this there
is a fellow fixing the next door
neighbors fence.........they are
having a big party for the 4th
so I am thinking he should be
done in the next few days!!
If you have been reading my 
blog the passed 2 weeks you
 know we have been waiting 
quite a while for this to happen!
So we are quite happy about this....

Update: He got all the new boards 
on and was hoping he would paint 
today, but didn't see him at all
 today... so hoping for tomorrow!!

Cardinal in our bird bath,  we get them
quite often............


#10
that lil darling is doing much better
 today. She seemed to be feeling fine
 when she arrived on Wednesday,  altho
 she had gotten sick once during the night 
and was fine all morning, and didn't seem 
to be running a fever or anything but when 
she woke up from her nap, she came out 
and was sitting on my lap trying to wake 
up and just started throwing up like
crazy. Bless her sweet heart!!
  Just called again to check on her and
 Scott said she was doing fine and it has
 been over 24 hrs. and she hasn't gotten 
sick again. PTL
Talked to her for a  few minutes and 
she sounded really chipper, amazing
 how fast lil ones rebound from stuff
 like that, thank heavens,  so guess it
 was just a 24 hr. bug.
 So thrilled to hear she is over it.

#11
that hubby was here yesterday when
 lil one got sick.  He took care of the 
clean up while I took care of lil
 darling  nd called her Mommy...



#12
for a sweet compliment that I got
 from 2 younger women recently,
that really blessed my heart.


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

Well, here's to another week at
Cozy Place.


Hope you enjoyed your visit and
 hope you will come back soon.


Hope you have a wonderful 
4th of July and Weekend,
 with those you hold dear.


Love, Hugs,
and First of July Blessings,

Nellie
