Thanksgiving Thursday - November 5, 2015

Welcome to another weekly installment of Thanksgiving Thursday.  :-)

Sing joyfully to the Lord, you righteous;
    it is fitting for the upright to praise him.
Psalm 33:1

Counting my blessings one by one:
  • For a town rich in American History...
  • For a crisp, sunny Autumn day to enjoy a nice, long walk with my husband...
  • For a God who creates incredible beauty during this time of year - from the color spectrum of Autumn leaves to the majesty of brilliant sunsets..







  • For the incredible joy of having a baby in the house once again...

  • For delicious comfort food...
{Beef & Gnocchi}





  • For catching up via email with a dear, sweet friend who recently moved...
  • For the continued unseasonably warm November weather...
  • For a routine dermatology check yielding know worrisome findings...
  • For time in the Word on a sunny afternoon...

Praising God for His many blessings this past week.

I’ll count my blessings—
Count them o’er and o’er—
I’ll tell my Father’s goodness—
I will love Him more,
I’ll count my blessings, bountiful and free—
Yet I can never count them all—
So good is God to me!

Carrie E. Breck

  1. Beautiful post-- the pics of the trees make me miss back home... and the delicious soup/bread makes me hungry! (I have comfort ate a lot today to nurse this cold. Need to break that habit. Ha.) Thanks for sharing and linking up, Karen.

  5. Such beautiful Fall colors and that fine stone fence...reminds me of Virginia or Pennsylvania or somewhere where I have been before with those two characteristics.
    Joy comes with our gratitude, doesn't it? Glad you are my neighbor at Jennifer's tonight.
