Ann Voskamp @ A Holy Experience wrote the book One Thousand Gifts.... which I absolutely love... and I share in the gratitude journal beginning today with
290. I am so grateful that we were able to have another wonderful thanksgiving celebration with
my parents in our home last week.
We were able to bring mom and dad in from their respective nursing facilities for a great time of sharing and remembering! At nearly 94 and nearly 90 we dont know how many more times like this that we will be able to share all together!!!
291. It was also our great pleasure and honor to enjoy our dearest friends, Dottie and B ill around our table....Just like a sister and brother, Thanksgiving is the best time for "Family'' to be together!!!
292. Today as I sat in the car waiting for Lynn to drop something off at mom's old house we are working on ... I heard a wonderful chatter right beside me... it didnt take me long to be introduced to my chatty friend....
Such a handsome fellow.. the most gregarious sort of chap.... I dont really know what he was trying to tell me, but he lingered there for quite sometime as we checked each other out!!!
293. I love the sweet uplifting movies we are offered during the holiday season. Whether a made for Christmas special or a reprisal of a grand old classic, this is my favorite season for tv watching.... almost always something worth giving any hour or two to..
294.Leftovers this year are quite enjoyable..... My mother's dressing recipe almost hit the mark this time..... makes that leftover turkey so much the sweeter!!!
295. The thanksgiving colors and autumn leaves are all put away and it's beginning to look a bit like Christmas around the house.... hopefully, the tree will go up soon!!!
