Good Sunday Morning
Sweet Friends,
Here are the verses for today!
Blessed are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD their God. He is the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them— he remains faithful forever.
Happy Happy Thanksgiving
and
Welcome to Thankful Thursday.
Hope you have had a Wonderful day with your family
and or friends. We celebrated on Wednesday with
our family, as our Daughter and Son-in-love
arrived on Monday late afternoon, and then were
going to visit his/their other family today.
Our Son and lil darling and my Sil Susan
all live here already, thankfully.
It all worked out about as perfectly as this side
of Heaven could be. They all left around noon
and since we were very tired from all the fun, the
rest of the day was quiet and restful and we had
our 2nd Thanksgiving dinner with all the yummy
leftovers, (always the benefit to hosting. lol) took
a long nap and are gonna watch a movie or two
once I finish posting this.....lol
table 2021 since google now uploads them
for us so quickly. Gotta love that!
Now on with my Thankfuls.....
#1
Thankful to have lil darling all day on Friday,
we were home schooling most of the day, but we
did get some play time in as well.
It was a joy to have her all day.....
#2
Thankful the guest room is all finished
and ready for our Daughter and hubby
and we are looking forward to there arrival
tomorrow night.
#3
Thankful that something that would have been
a big disappointment did not come to pass.
Praise the Lord
#4.
Thankful that we had a gentleman
named "Marquis Laughlin" do our church
service this week. He is a dramatist that recites
the word of God with great expression and
drama and makes the scripture come to life.
He did 6 chapters out of the book of Daniel,
and it was wos really wonderful.
#5
Thankful that our kids made it in safe and sound
on Monday afternoon late.
#6
Thankful that I am feeling better today,
I was feeling sort of sick last night but
thought it might just be overtiredness, and
guess that must have been it. PTL
#7
Thankful our friends we go to lunch with
on Sunday celebrated their 51st Anniversary
yesterday. Such a great folks, and such
a great testimony of God's grace and Love.
#8
Thankful for pumpkin cheesecake that we found
at Sams. It was rich but wonderful. They
are pre-sliced at just the right size too.
#9
Thankful that all of our dinner is ready for
our early Thanksgiving on Wed.....all we
need to do is pop most of it in the oven. Love,
Love, Love dishes we can prepare ahead
so we are not in the kitchen all day.
I have to say, if I do say so myself,
it was all really delicious!
#10
Thankful for the fun and help from my
Sweet Daughter. We really enjoy
cooking together. It also gave hubby
a break............cause he has become my
sous chef these days.......lol
#11
Thankful for a great movie called
"Woodlawn",
We have seen it before and it is a true story.
So...if you would like to see something
that will boost your faith, this is your movie.
It is so great to know it is a true story.
Love that.
#12
Thankful for our dear family and for the
great time we all had, just talking and hanging
out, going to Olive Garden for dinner, preparing
Thanksgving dinner together, watching dry bar
comedy, Playing charades and wii bowling,
and having hubbies breakfast sandwiches for
Thanksgiving morning. Also thankful we
could all be together and that we are all
healthy and happy and loved by God and
each other. Doesn't get much better than that!!
#13
Thankful for these lovely berries.......
In case you don't know these are called
"hypercum berries", they come from a St Johns
wort plant from what my Son tells us. I just
love them for some reason and the only time you
ever see them in Florida is around Thanksgiving
and I usually have to go to Market Fresh
store to get them, and thought I would have to
pass on them this year, and lo and behold on
Sunday our local grocery store had them, and
in different colors than I normally get but
was perfect for our table this year. Usually
they are orange or rust colored. They are a
simple pleasure for me.....lol
This is how it looked once I finished with the
berries, couldn't put them on till close to table time.
Forgot to take these yesterday but wanted
you to see how pretty they were. Also they
were taken just a few mins. ago and it is
night time.
That's it for Cozy Place this week
This is our Thanksgiving edition!! lol
Thanks for visiting......happy you could come by.
and
Have a great rest of the week.
Love, Hugs and
Thanksgiving Blessings!!

Greetings Sweet Friends,
Hope this finds you doing well, and
excitedly getting geared up for Thanksgiving.
That is what is happening over here!
So happy planning and doing..............
Pictures today are of one of our
Thanksgiving tables from the past.
I figured you are the same as me,
probably looking for ideas for
your Thanksgiving table this year
as well.
Now on with my Thankfuls.....
#1
Thankful we made it home safe and sound and
uneventfully on Monday evening. and as much
as we love being with our kids and sleeping well
there, it is always a joy to get back home and
in our own bed. lol
#2
Thankful that as we started home our tires
were showing that they were low, and we
figured it was just because it was cold, but
hubby has a tire pump, so after we had
gone aways and it still didn't change he
decided he fill the tires a little bit, and it
was a great idea as it gave us peace of mind
that they were fine, cause they were all at
the same level. Cause you never know if
you might have picked up a nail or some
thing and have a slow leak.
#3
Thankful that we are all unpacked
and everything is tucked away where
it should be, and the mail has been
gone through, and hubby went to the
store so we have food in the house,
now I can move on to other things
that need to be done tomorrow
which is Wednesday.
#4
Thankful once again for the
"Better Together" show on TBN.
Almost everyday I walk away
with some nugget of truth or
encouragement.
Today Laurie Crouch shared
a quote that I really liked.
She said, she read it somewhere,
and here it is.....
"Thankfulness is like a tonic for
disillusionment and bitterness"
I love that, cause I think it is
so true...........
#5
Thankful guest bedroom is almost done.
Had stashed a lot of stuff in there from
when I did my Fall decorating, so had
to put it away finally. lol
#6
Thankful our Son took a few things
off our shopping list, by getting some
things for us that we wanted to get
for lil darling for Christmas.
#7
Thankful for a successful
shopping trip as we were on
a mission to finish up our
shopping for Dee and Jerry,
so they can take their gifts
home with them, since they
can't be here for Christmas
this year.
#8
Thankful we get to see lil
darling on Friday. It seems
like ages since we have
seen her.
Well, that's it for Cozy Place this week,
it was a short week, since I did 10 days
last week.
Greetings Sweet Friends,
Hope yall are all doing great!
I know I am more than a tad late
but you will see why when you
read on......
I'm gonna stop right there and
get this posted. lol
Pictures today are Fall scenes
from Cozy Place this year!
Now on with my Thankfuls.....
#1
Thankful for a nice evening out to
dinner with our Son and little
darling to celebrate his birthday,
and they wound up coming over
for a while afterwards since lil
darling wasn't up to going to
karate as she is taking meds for
an earache.
#2
Thankful that we are all packed
and ready to leave to go to my
Daughter and Son-in-loves this
morning. We can't wait to see
them and have more than a few
days with them. We always enjoy
the time so much.
#3
Thankful that I am married to such
a great guy and that we are celebrating
51 years of married life today (Sunday).
We have walked down many roads these
passed 51 years, but altho we have
had some scary times, some hard times,
some sad times, crazy times, we have
mostly had good times of love, blessings,
fun, adventure and have gone down
roads we never imagined we would.
and the Lord has been more than
faithful to us.
#4
Thankful for a fun time celebrating
our anniversary with Dee and Jerry.
They took us out to Longhorn
steak house and she even bought us
a yummy orange walnut cranberry
cake with cream cheese frosting.
It was so good, but rich, so can't
eat too big a piece for sure.
Means we get a repeat tonight. lol
#5
Thankful that even tho she had to
work today, she had made us a
brocoli/cheese quiche, and our
fav cream cheese and strawberry
coffee cake, that she always makes
us.....and she was able to run home
at lunch and eat with us. Sweet!
#6
Thankful to be enjoying more cool
weather here in Charleston. It's
really awesome.
#7
Thankful my Daughter did so well
with some dental surgery today,
and has felt pretty good all
day, much better than what we
expected, we thought she would
probably want to sleep all day,
but we all had a nice afternoon
together sitting outside and
catching up.
#8
Thankful for a fun time out
shopping with our girl, and
thankful she was feeling good
enough to do that. She needed to
do shopping for the house she
is furnishing and decorating
for a client, so it was fun helping
her find and chose things. Some
one is renting it right now, but
they are moving out in Dec. and
then she will fix it up as a
vacation rental home. I think
it's gonna look awesome from
the things I have seen she has
chosen. Also managed to do a
little Christmas shopping too.
#9
Thankful for a fun time
playing yatzee and watching
dry bar comedy with the kids.
#10
Thankful for another fun day out
shopping with our guys and din din
at Outback Steakhouse, it's been years
since we have been there. Was happy
to see they had added some new
things to their menu, so will probably
visit them at home soon.
#11
Thankful for some time cooking
together and playing cards just
the 2 of us.
#12
Thankful for having this lovely time
to spend with Dee and Jerry and Bentley
(our grandson dog( for the last week.
It was easier to say goo bye this time
cause they will be at our house for
Thanksgiving next week. lol
So have to hit the ground
running to be prepared for next
week. Thankful we got a lot done
before we left since we knew that.
Thankful to God and his goodness
to us and our family. Thankful our
girl felt good all week in spite of
her dental surgery.
Well, that's it for Cozy place
this week and a half. lol
Thanks for coming by
Love, Hugs and
Mid November Blessings,
Nellie
