Thankful Thursday May 8, 2025, and a Mother's day Table from the past

The Lord delights in those who fear him,

    who put their hope in his unfailing love.

Psalm 147:11 NIV

Happy Thursday Sweet Friends,

Hope this finds you doing well, and

 possibly getting ready for Mother's Day!!

Been a good week here.....we were

ecstatic that we got a lil, and I do

mean little rain, but some rain is

better than no rain, since it is so dry,

and not to mention hot as blue blazes.

Thought you might enjoy seeing pics

of a Mother's day table from the past.

Since some of you might be hosting

your Mom, Grandmother or another

Mom for that matter.

On with my Thankfuls....

#1

Thankful for dinner out with our sweet

 neighbors that live across the street.

Their Grandson came too, and that 

was fun cause we haven't seen him

long enough to have a conversation in

quite awhile.  Sweet kid, course, h3

is 24 now.  Still a kid to us!!  lol

#2

Thankful for a good last day of school 

with lil darling. Her last day actually

 at school is the today, so we probably

want be seeing her quite as much since

 she is getting older and wants to spend

 more time with friends.

#3

Thankful that our new hydrangeas are

 doing beautifully. We haven't planted them 

yet, as we are trying to slowly get them

 acclamated to the time of day when they

 start to get full sun.  Which is at noon

 and the rest of the day.  So we have sort

 of been babysitting them and checking on

 them hourly in case them might burn

or need water, which they have needed 

a lot of water.  So excited for them to

do well.......

#4

Thankful for a great message from our

 Pastor Andrew, who spoke on mental health

 and gave a testimony from his own life

 I personally think that message is going

to help a lot of people, and hubby and

 I both think he was quite brave to give it.  

#5

Thankful that our friends/ lunch buddies

 were all able to be at church, as they

 were all feeling well enough...........her

 husband had a mild stroke some weeks

 back and thankfully it didn't do any bad

damage permanently it seems, but made

 him very weak, so he is slowly getting

 his strength  back,  so we were so

 happy to see him feeling much stronger.

#6

Thankful for lunch out with a sweet

 Jamaican couple, we have known for

some years but had just never gotten

together before.  We had such a good

 time and  found we have quite a few

 things in common. It was fun getting

 to know them better

#7

Thankful our Daughter and Son-in-love 

had a nice 4 day get away this passed

 week,  to a beach in North Carolina.

#8

Thankful we got our "White Wedding

hydrangeas" planted today. We have

been having a lot of overcast weather

and we are expecting some rain in

the next few days according to the

weather, so figured now was the

time.  I named her "Gorgeous", and

hoping she lives up to her name. lol

 

#9

Thankful for more work in the yard,

making progress, but an ongoing job.  lol

Thankful we may start getting some

rain here soon, we sure need it.

#10

Thankful that we got that much

needed rain, not once but twice on Wed.

Much harder rain the 2nd time later in

 the evening. Grass looks so happy this

morning, much greener.

#11

Thankful that "Gorgeous" did great

thru the 2nd rain especially, as I

was a lil concerned it might be too

heavy and break a stem or two.

If you don't know who "Gorgeous"

is check out #8.  lol

#12

Thankful that we have had bunnies

hanging out in our yard multiple

times a day all this week, but only

one at a time, so we thing they both

must be coming out, just at different 

times of the day, and we can't tell

one from the other. lol.  Have not seen

them both at the same time since

last weeks post. Even when we go

out there, they don't run away, and

sometimes I talk to them, but they

just sit there unless I try to go

closer and then they will hop off

in the woods. lol  But I think they

feel safe here in our yard evidently,

cause we never chase after them.

Well, that's it for Cozy Place this week

Have a Happy Mother's Day Weekend

Thanks for spending some time 

with us today!

Love, Hugs and

 Mother's Day Blessings,

Nellie
