Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. Psalm 100:3 NIV
Happy Thanksgiving
Sweet Friends,
May the Lord bless you with
a wonderful day with your
family/ friends or furry friends.
So looking forward to the day.
Pictures today are from a Thanksgiving
table from the Past. Sorry for some reason
my brain thought you would get to see
this before Thanksgiving, in case you
were still looking for ideas...........oh well. lol
So on with my Thankfuls..........
#1
Thankful that we are all unpacked and
squared away quickly from our trip.
#2
Thankful that we could do an Aldi instacart
shopping, as we didn't feel like going out and
it's not the most fun shopping experience either,
but they have great prices, and we learned about
some great finds there from our girl.
#3
Thankful to see lil darling today, and having a good school day, and she loved a few lil things
we brought her back.
#4
Thankful our poinsettia is starting to turn red so maybe it will be totally red before Christmas.
#5
Thankful for some really great bread our
Daughter had that she used to make us Ham
and Turkey Sandwiches with. It is a sour
dough bread with everything bagel seasoning,
that she got at Aldi. It is really good, and
we are now hooked on it............lol Made some
ham and turkey sandwiches last night. Yum!!
#6
Thankful to have our tree up, but won't
decorate it till after Thanksgiving, since
we still have all our Fall decor up.
#7
Thankful I got my curtains changed back to
my older ones until Spring., The Spring/Fall
ones won't go well with Christmas colors at all.
#8
Thankful we watched our first Christmas movie of the year. It was on Up faith and family and was called "The Christmas Caterer", I think.
Very enjoyable movie
#9
Thankful that we were able to attend the funeral of a fellow who was a long time friend of my Son's, that he met through a lot of his friends. He was only 47 yrs. old and it was very sudden. He was a very sweet and funny/comedic fellow, and he will surely be missed. It was good to see his parents and sister, as they used to attend our church years ag, and all his friends as it has been awhile.
#10
Thankful for a lovely walk tonight in the
cool weather and saw a beautiful sunset.
#11
Thankful I am working on our Thanksgiving
table today, and sending out some Thanksgiving
cards via email.
Note: Table is all ready............
#12
Thankful for our sweet younger neighbor who
helped us get 2 mattresses to the curb.
Hubby could do it but I couldn't because
their were no handles or anything to hang
on too. He actually brought his teen son
with him, so neither of us had to do it.,
Such a sweet and thoughtful young man
who has been through a lot of hardship.
#13
Thankful that our Thanksgiving food is ready,
all I will need to do is pop it all in the
oven and bake it. So looking forward to it.
Glad you stopped in,
and
Hope you enjoy your Thanksgiving weekend.
Love, Hugs and
Thanksgiving Blessings,
Nellie

Greetings Sweet Friends,
How are you doing this fine evening. Doing
quite well, I hope.
We just got home late last night from
South Carolina. We went to visit with our
Daughter, Son-in-love and Furry Grandson Dog,
and just had the best time as always. We came
home rested, refreshed and with my cup full
of love and Joy.
Pictures today are of Yummy Fall Desserts
compliments of Unsplash.
Now on with my Thankfuls.................
#1
Thankful to have made a trip up and back to South Carolina Safe and sound and uneventfully. Praise the Lord.
#2
Thankful that we can come and stay with them for a week every so often. We always have such a great time. Nothing like being with your grown up kiddles.
Thankful to get to meet all the ladies
my Daughter works with, now I have a face
to put with a name.
#4
Thankful my hubby was able to get a heart
cat scan done at the imaging center where
our daughter works. We think all is fine,
just gotta wait to hear it from the heart Doc.
#5
Thankful for the fun of playing cards and yatzee together, and watching Dry bar comedy and a golf cart ride.
#6
Thankful for the wonderful cream cheese and strawberry coffee cake our Daughter always makes and blesses us with every trip. It is so delcious, and we always look forward to it.
#7
Thankful for the fun of going to see a lovely
2 story home that was having an open house
in their neighborhood. Looks like an HGTV
house. I love their neighborhood cause there
is nothing cookie cutter about it, homes
range from small bungalows and cottages,
ranch style, Craftsman style, modern, farmhouse and huge beach and modern homes and more.
Very interesting and charming area.
#8
Thankful for a fun time for all of us out Christmas shopping at their lovely outdoor outlet mall. It was just the right amount of cold, and they even had their Christmas tree up, so we all enjoyed it so much.
#9
Thankful they treated us to dinner at Carabbas
to celebrate our Anniversary afterwards, and
for the lovely and meaningful card.
#10
Thankful for the cooler weather. It was so
enjoyable and felt like Fall/ Winter weather.
Delightful.
#11
Thankful we decided to make an early
Thanksgiving dinner since the kids can't
be with us this year for Thanksgiving.
It was nice we got to prepare it together
which is fun for us, and then got to eat
it of course. It was nice, so think this
could become a tradition on those years
they can't come.....Don't know why we
haven't thought of it before.
#12
Thankful for God's goodness to us,
and love that so many are putting up their
Christmas decorations already. We found
a radio station on the way home from there
that was playing Christmas music, so
we got to listen and sing to Christmas
music half the way home. I think that is
a sign our country is more hopeful.
That's it for Cozy Place Today.
This is the Anniversary-Vacay edition.
Happy you stopped by......
Have a great rest of the week.
Love, Hugs, and
Mid November Blessings

Note to Sandi over at Dandelion tea:
I have been to your blog numerous
times and tried to leave comments,
but it always says there is an error,
so tried to answer your comments
on my blog, but it does the same thing
So that is why you haven't heard
from me.
On with my Thankfuls.....
#1
Thankful for a lovely night out celebrating
our Anniversary and our Son's birthday
with he and lil darling.
#2
Thankful for the lil things I have been seeing since the election is over, that are vert interesting and delightful to me. Hubby went to Dunkin Donut the day after, and they gave him a free sandwich and a Senior discount, and he goes there about every 7-10 days, and that has never happened before, and then we went out to Longhorn steak house for our Anniversary/Birthday celebration and Somehow it came up in our conversation with our server while we were waiting on our Son and lil darling to come, that we were celebrating our Anniversary, and she asked how many years, and thought it was great we were married 54 years. then we said we are also celebrating our Sons birthday too. So once, they came She took great care of us and was such a sweet and pleasant girl and at the end of our dinner she asked us if we wanted dessert and we said No, because we were going home to eat Banana pudding, (both my guys fav dessert) and she left and in a few mins. came back with 2 beautiful ice cream desserts, and also gave us an Anniversary card and our Son a birthday card! Now, I have never seen that done before! and I said, Thank you for helping to make America be great again! and she smiled a big smile. I see so many people trying to do small things that add so much joy to others lives..............I just love that!!
And hope it will be on going, as it is wonderful to see others thinking about someone else besides themselves, all the time.
#3
Thankful for another good school day with lil darling.
#4
Thankful lil darling has memorized half of Philippians chapter 2, and I will wind up memorizing it all. Not an easy chapter to memorize, but great she has done it.

they can match with real life so
many times, and many times help

Thankful for our sweet neighbors who gave us some of her delicious vegetable soup. I was just thinking about it today, as she usually makes it in the Fall. Such a sweet and surprise gift.

only delicous but nutrious as well.
#10
Thankful the the GOP won the House
and the Senate.

Thankful for updates that I see on facebook reels of the progress in North Carolina. I know they still need a lot of help and prayers, but it is wonderful to see how our country has responded to this disaster.
#12
Thankful for all our Veterans and their families who sacrifice so much for the sake and protection of the people of this country. We thank you for your service, you are so appreciated, and May God Bless you!

Early November Blessings,
