Thankful Thursday August 4, 2016, Coastal tablescape from the past

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 2:6-7  NIV

Greetings Sweet Friends,

Hope it has been a good week
at your house.  I suspect many
of you are getting children ready
to go back to school and trying to
 get in a lil more family fun before
 the new school year begins.

It has been a good week here,
more activity that usual as you
will read.
 Our lil darling will be starting
 preschool soon too.  Hard to 
imagine that she is old enough
for that already.  We had her
on Wed. and Thursday this
week, and will continue to
have her on Wednesdays for
the next year at least. Very
happy about that,  as I love
having that time with her.

Decided to include some pics 
of a Coastal Table since we are
 still in the summer season..............
I did this one some years back......
If you would like to see the
 original post just click here

Hope it inspires you to do a fun
 coastal table before the summer
 is over.


Now, on with Thankful Thursday.


I am thankful


#1

for an adorable read and pictures

on yahoo, of a police officer having

a tea party with a 2 yr. old toddler

that he saved a year before as she

was choking on a penny..........

He is now friends with the family

and has a special bond with the

lil one..........So sweet!

Wonderful to see with all the

 police negativity these days.

#2
for a fun Friday evening with a
 young couple from our class that 
we are sort of mentoring. They
 are such a sweet young couple
 and newly weds as well.........
Very happy to know them.

#3
for a fun time at a baby shower
for another young lady from our
young marrieds class. It was really
 fun time visiting with others and
honoring the mom to be, she got 
so many nice things.
It is also the same couple I told
you about last week,  I think it
was,  that got the big answer
to prayer about his job.

#4
 for a really fun time with lil darling
 on Sat. as well.  She got to spend 
the night and it has been awhile but
 she did very well and she even slept
in till about 8:20 or so,  and Mom and
 Dad says she never does that at home. 
 Truthfully I was quite surprised as I
 thought she would be up by 6:30 
myself.............

#5
that 2 students from our class
returned this week, as they have
been MIA for a lil while. So
we were all happy about that
as they have been missed!!

#6
 for our usual Sunday routine of
Sunday School, church, frozen
yogurt run, and quick stop at the
 grocery store, and  especially a
nice long afternoon nap, as I was
 bushed from all that fun and
 activity of the whole weekend.
A fun bushed.........but bushed!

#7
that Dee and Jerry  made it home
safe and sound from Charleston, 
S.C.,  as they went there for the
 weekend to see how they like
the place.

#8
for my favorite and delicious fruit
 smoothies I have been making this
 week for breakfast,  I seem to have
so much energy after I drink one.
Just in case you are  interested
  Here is the recipe, 
 Since I posted that recipe I have
 been adding a container of vanilla 
oikos greek yogurt to it,  to give
me more protein.......

#9
for Kemp's "Moose Tracks frozen
yogurt.  It is um um good!!  Love
it in a sugar cone........yummy!

#10
for a beautiful silver blue sky with 
wispy cirrus clouds, that I saw as I 
was riding the mower while cutting
 the grass on Wednesday evening.
Breathtakingly Beautiful!

of peace and solace it is for us,
and I hope for others as well.

#12
that I have been able to exercise
again without any problems with
my back..........thanks heavens!!
Cause my scales just keep going
up, up, up...........
So I need all the help I can get!!  lol
