I know it has been a long time since I last posted. I am hoping to remedy that situation as I am getting more and more organized and trying to eliminate things from my schedule. I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. I am not with my side of the family this year but I do get to share this thanksgiving with my husband's family. We are sure to be stuffed with wonderful foods and great deserts. We will most certainly play charades and be entertained by a wonderful skit put on by the kids. It is always something new and creative. Can't wait to see what they come up with this year.
As I woke up this morning the house was cold with a new cold front that blew in yesterday. We went from 80 degree weather to the 40's. I was so thankful for this wonderful fall weather. We put up a thankful tree on Monday (this was supposed to happen on Nov. 1 but illness kept us from getting it up). By Tues. morning it was full and continues to fill up. The children add to it daily. We are truly blessed. I did want to put a thankful list up today and I hope to think of one everyday. So, what are you thankful for. Here is my list of 10 things...
1)Jesus Christ and the sacrifice He made that I may be reconciled with God in Heaven.
2)My husband. God knew exactly what I would need and blessed me with all of that and more in
Phillip
3)My four wonderful children. The Lord allows me to see His diversity in their unique personalites and brings me joy daily through them.
4)The church body at NEC. The impact they have on my walk with Christ brings glory to God daily.
5)My husband's job and the provision God gives us though it.
6)A huge home with rooms to fill with whoever needs them.
7)That my house if full right now with the added blessings of 2 of my neices (1 biological, 1 adopted)
8)My homeschool loopies buddies. These woman have walked with my for many years now and have prayed for me, blessed me, made me laugh and taught me more than a few things.
9)My dearest friends here who keep me accountable, love me, are patient with me and keep me focused on the Lord
10)My extended family, Mom, Dad, Grandmommy, Pawpaw and all the children they raised that now are my family in-love and in-law.
God is Good. All the Time!

This is so cute! When my little is old enough not to un-decorate any decorated surface (like a wall), I will certainly be borrowing this idea.
looneymom,
For the longest time we had to put it up high on the wall and they brought the leaves to us and we hung it for them. It was really much easier this year since they all could do it themselves! It was very full too!
