Thankful Thursday May 11, 2017, the last of Spring in the livingroom

 proclaiming aloud your praise and telling 
of all your wonderful deeds.

Psalm 26:7

Greetings Sweet Friends,

Bet most of you are having a busy
week gearing up for Mother's Day.

Busy day here....so I am just 
gonna get on with my post.......

Pictures are the rest of the story
from our Spring living room.  lol

I am thankful

#1

for a really fun time with our young

marrieds class on Friday night. We

were a small group again,  but that

didn't dampen the fun one bit.  

Good food and Good fellowship

and fun games.

#2

for a sweet and reflective time after

attending a funeral on Saturday 

afternoon for a 94 yr. old saint

in our church.....what a great send

off for a man with a life well lived.  

He and his wife were married for 70

 years, had 8 children, 7 girls and

 1 boy (who passed away a few years

 ago, and was in heaven to greet him),

 26 grandchildren, 20 great grand-

children, and 3 great great grand-

children, and many spiritual

children and folks who loved him.

Really made us think about a 

saying that our 80+ Pastor friend

and his wife say...."Make your

last lap your best!!"

#3

for finding a few new things on

the menu at Perkins.  Went there

to get their chicken spinach 

quesadillas,  and they had re-

vamped their whole menu,  so

we had to pick something else.

Tried their Sonoma chicken salad 

and hubby had their B-B-que

smoked chicken on a open faced

 french roll..... 

both were really good.

#4

for a good discussion in Sunday

School about miracles.....that

reminded me of some miracles

I have experienced in my own

life..........always good to look

back on those good things God

has done...........

Oops, a lil Easter leftover.  lol



#5

for a fun time with Scott, Megan

and Brooklyn on Sunday.  We all 

played hide and seek outside and

inside with Brooklyn for awhile.

  Had a nice dinner,  then before

 they went home we decided to try 

a game of "PIT" cause we thought

 it was something Brooklyn could

 do with us,  so she sat on my lap

and yelled out what I told her and

 we let her ring the bell to start each

 round and, we won 3 times, and she

 was disappointed when we lost,

 but got sooo excited every time

we won.  It was so funny.......

#6

that I only have a few more things

to do in our computer/office room.

Got the skirt put around my work

table finally........and love that it

hides all my supplies that I need

to store.

#7
for seeing a Dove and Squirrel in our
bird bath and then a zebra butterfly
in the Jasmine bushes right behind it,
all within minutes, as I was getting
some sunshine.......lil gifts!

#8

for President Trump's heart for our

our country....and that He signed a bill

 to protect our religious freedoms.

#9

for contact thru email with a long time
friend of 40 years, and hopefully we
will get to talk soon.  The last few
 years they have had so many difficult
 things going on.....so all that had to
have her focus, so we have had very
lil contact other than a short email
here and there.  So glad they are
coming out of the woods.

Made another lil change

#10

that little darling went into our

 bedroom on Sunday afternoon 

to get a toy, right when she did.

She went in and when she came

 out, she came right over to me 

and said Grammy, something is

 in your room, so I went to see and 

jokingly said on the way, thinking

 about the snake I found in my 

living room last year....it isn't 

moving is it??

and when we walked in, she

pointed towards our bathroom

and it was moving all right,

there was water running every-

where, as the potty overflowed.

Handle stuck for some reason.

Thank the Lord is was all clean 

water.......and it didn't get on the 

closet carpeting this time, thankful

 for our shop vac.....and especially

 for Brooklyns and hubbies

 quick reactions.

#11

for the Lord's direction to us

about getting a new refrigerator

 last November...as we put our

 old one in the garage....and it 

died on us Friday, the same day

 we were having the social here,

and altho it was a minor incon-

venience when it died.....it

 would have been a real mess

 had it still been our kitchen

 fridge.

#12

that a situation that arose for 

 our daughter, that she was totally

bummed by, turned out to be a

 big misunderstanding, so things

 appear to be fine now.

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

Well there you have it.......

this week from Cozy Place.

So happy you could stop by,

and hope you remember a 

few things you are thankful

for too..........if so,  why not

share one or two......

It might just encourage some

one else.........

Have a Delightful weekend.

Love, Hugs and 

Mid Spring Blessings,

Nellie
