Thankful Thursday August 3, 2023, and Beachy Summer Tablescape from the past


Sing the praises of the LORD, you his faithful people;

 praise his holy name.

Psalm 30:4 NIV


Welcome to August and

               Welcome to Thankful Thursday,

I know I'm a lil bit late, but better late than                never, as the old saying goes.....

Hope your week has been a good one, and thanks for coming by, always happy to have you visit!  Our week has been mostly good....but we have  grieving about our  friend who fell and broke her knee cap, and had to have surgery and has just been in so much pain. She is the same one who had the episode at church a few weeks back. She is such a sweetheart and always taking care of others! 

    

 Pictures today are from a Beach themed table from the past. Thought since it was still Summer    time it would be a great time to share it. 


So on with my Thankfuls...........



#1

Thankful for a nice quiet day with Brooklyn and 

dinner out with her and our Son.  Then hubby

and I did a lil shopping afterwards at our

fairly new Bealls store, and a new dollar tree

near us, that I have wanted to visit since it opened.  


#2

Thankful that I picked up a few small things

for Fall there.  A small vignette actually for

just $5......like I really needed anything else

for Fall...........lol  But they were cute lil

pumpkins, I have to say.....



#3

Thankful for a fun day with lil darling on

Friday.  We played "Monopoly" with her for

the first time and she really liked it way more

than I ever thought she would.  She beat us

too.  It is an old Monopoly game from when

our kids were young, so been a longggg time

since we have played it.


#4

Thankful for her new lil friend in our neighborhood,

that she met through her other lil friend next door,

She is away a lot this summer and they and this

other lil girl have played together a number of 

times. Both very sweet girls.....and so happy to

have them over, and they all play so well together,

and are all very well behaved.



#5

Thankful that hubby was able to fix our mailbox
 temporarily until we can get a new one.  It just
 got wobbly all of a sudden and then 2 days later
fell over with mail in it........lol
It is so hot out it is not exactly great for doing
projects right now either!  Ugh!  Poor Hubby.


#6

Thankful that our guest room is all done.....

as we are expecting company on Wednesday. 

 Guess who??  Our Daughter DeeAnna.

  We are very excited.....to say the least.





#7

Thankful for the way the Lord directs our paths even when we don't realize it.  I was reminded of it recently when I read something from a Dr. about  taking Calcium, and the downsides, and realized how much the Lord had directed me away from taking it, at least, 3-4 times if not more.


#8

Thankful to see on facebook today that a lil gal (we adore) that used to go to our church her whole growing up years, but who is now married and lives in Ga. was able to come to our churches Summer camp this year and bring her daughter so she could see and experience where and what her Mom experienced every Summer  as a child, and meet a lot of folks her Mom knew back then, that are still friends. Such a blessing to them and to long time friends as well....and it was a blessing that I got to see lots of fun pictures of them and other I know too.




#9

Thankful for all the loose ends we got tied

up the last few week.  Love when anyone comes

cause it motivates me to take care of little things

that have needed doing anyway. So now, I can just

 bask in the glory of that and enjoy life!   lol


#10

Thankful for take out from Longhorn steakhouse

on Monday as I wasn't feeling great Sunday or

Monday, but good eating and rest has made

me feel better today.  PTL



#11

Thankful our Daughter is on the way here.

YAY!!!



#12

Thankful that she made it safe and sound.

It will be a short visit..... but we will take 

whatever we can get and be happy with it.





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


Have a great weekend


Love, Hugs and 

First of August Blessings,

Nellie
