Thankful Thursday June 20, 2019, Simple Summer dinner table

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; 
all who follow his precepts have good understanding.
 To him belongs eternal praise.
Psalm 111:10 NIV



Good Morning Sweet Friends,

and
Welcome to Summer!!


It's finally official, altho, it has
 been like Summer here for  a 
month or more. 
Well, I am gonna get this posted
as it is mostly ready, just gotta
add some pics.

hmmm, not sure what pics to
post, ah, maybe a simple
summer table from the past.

On with my Thankfuls............

#1 and 2

Thankful that we got our

 porch all back together after 

we cleaned it last week, and

 It looks so nice. 

Thankful we also had some

work smarter not harder ideas

that we think might help with

less maintenance and keep it

looking cleaner longer. We 

are leaving certain plants off

the porch that drop leaves,

and moved some chairs away 

from the edge of the porch 

where they get rained on all 

the time, as we are in rainy

season right now.  We have

also been using bug spray

to keep the spider and bugs

away for awhile now.

Hopefully these changes

will help us, and maybe 

your porch too.

#3

Thankful for a fun night

out shopping for Father's

day and going to dinner.

Went to a restaurant (It's
called Cheddar's) we've

only been to a couple of

times.  Food was great,

less expensive than most

of the other restaurants,

 nice atmosphere and 

good service.

#4

Thankful that we were

able to get our A/C in

our home repaired very

quickly on Saturday. 

We noticed it was not

working before it got

too hot, called the A/C

folks and since we have

a maintenance program

with them, they came 

right out and it was only

a power module, so the

guy called, came and

had it fixed within an

hour.  Amazing!!

#5

Thankful that we got a lot 

of rest in the last week.

#6
Thankful that our daughter
and son-in-love got to 
Jamaica and back safely,
and had a great time with
her hubbies family.


#7

Thankful that hubby had
a nice Father's Day even
tho he didn't get to see his
children. We are celebrating
 with our son and his family 
next weekend. He did hear
from them both tho. We went
 out to lunch at Carrabbas
with our friends I will mention
later in this post and their
Dad.  Then hubby got a nice
long nap in.... So it was a 
good day for him, and he is
looking forward to next
weekend. We like to drag 
our celebrations out.....lol

#8
Thankful that my corn
bread didn't burn. I put it
 in the oven and then hubby 
decided to mow the lawn so
 I walked outside with him
to see a baby sandhill crane
in our next door neighbors
yard then started putzing in 
our yard a bit, and got tired
 and came inside. I could smell
 the cornbread the second I
 opened the door (which I had
 forgotten all about) and .....
amazingly it was right at 
the right time. It was nicely
 browned but not burnt. 
God's perfect timing!!  
I love the things HE does for
us....that cornbread is destined
to be in a Chicken casserole for
din din tomorrow night!!  lol

#9
Thankful for clean sheets and
my cozy comfy bed.

#10
Thankful for the opportunity
to make a certificate for a
couple who will be renewing
their vows for their 50th Anniver-
sary. We are doing it for the Father
 of our new friends. He is 97 yrs. old
 and is a Pastor and in great health 
other than his vision and hearing. 
 Anyway, he has known and been
 in touch with this couple for over
 50 yrs., and back when they orig-
inally got married they eloped due
 to family issues. He was Jewish and
 became a Christian and his family
disowned him, so because he was 
without a family, our friends Father, 
was sort of like a Father to them, so
 they now want him to officiate their
 renewal of vows. Isn't that a sweet
story.....  I have spoken about him 
on my blog before.  He is a wonder-
ful gentleman and everyone should 
have a Dad or Grandfather like him.

#11
Thankful hubby was able to fix
my daughter-in-loves car for her,
especially since my son is out of
town this week. Our Hero!!


#12
Thankful we were able to find 
some examples of Vow renewal
certificates and some pretty
graphics to use as well.

Well, sweet friends,  that's it
for this week.

Thanks for joining us today.


Keep your light shining 
brightly.

Love, Hugs, and
Happy Summer Blessings,

Nellie
