Too Early?

It's not to early, right???   To talk about Christmas???
I   L O V E   Christmas !  I always have and I always will !

Sitting by the fire, listening to Christmas music softly playing, with the lights on the Christmas tree sending out a twinkling aura of magic, it is the most wonderful time of the year.

But since it is still November, I made this country farm sign as a sort of Thanksgiving to Christmas bridge. It is Over the River and Through the Woods (to Grandmother's house we go for Thanksgiving Day).


I'm the annoying one that listens to and sings Christmas music all year long.  I like to imagine living in the story of the Christmas songs.  Who wouldn't want to go on a sleigh ride to Farmer Gray's house for some popping chestnuts and pumpkin pie!


So that explains why I did this country farm sign with Farmer Gray's house and more sleighs.  I'm in the sleigh behind those front three sleighs!
I hope you enjoy this wonderful Holiday time of year.

The Month of Thankfulness

It is a wonderful time of year.  A time when the trees change their outfit to beautiful shades of orange, yellow, and red. 
It is a time when the busyness of a hectic summer calms down and with our yards tucked in for winter we can take a deep breath and let it out.
November is warm Autumn soups and jacket/sweater weather.  It's apple pie and digging the hot cocoa out of the cupboard.
But most of all, it is the time to reflect on our abundant blessings.  We have much to be thankful for.

And when we are thankful, according to this verse, we are blessed even more abundantly.  What a great win/win!

The most interesting part of this verse to me is the "all things" part.  There are some things I'm not too grateful for.  Like when I walked into a swarm of bees a couple of weeks ago!  That was kind of traumatizing!  But as I look back on it, I am soooo grateful it was me and not my husband who was nearby.  He is allergic to bees and if it had been him, it would have been a life and death situation.
So there are ways to look at life and receiveth all things with thankfulness (I think).

Wishing you a pumpkin pie, hot apple cider, chili and cornbread month! Also, full of all the things you are thankful for :)
