H is for

H is for hanging out on the holiday and just visiting while waiting on lunch or trying to make room for dessert.

H is for help in the kitchen especially when that festive feeling is in the air.

H is for husbands who carve the turkey and offer thanks.

H is for our Heavenly Father who loves us and provides all good things.

It is great during the Thanksgiving season to just reflect on the many, many blessings which we perhaps take advantage of the rest of the year such as heat, hair, health, happiness, hands, hearts, and so on and so forth.

T is For

Thinking of Thanksgiving and all it holds dear here are my thoughts for T

T is for time with loved ones be it family or friends.

T is for talking and talking of years gone by and how this holiday was celebrated in the past from last year to 200 years ago.

T is for trash, ok, I know this one is weird, but it is a bit complicated to figure out what to do with all the trash that comes from this feast.

T is for time-out from our regular schedules to reflect on our God given heritage.

T is for Target and the day after sales!

T is for treasuring the fun the holiday brings.

So Pleased

I am so pleased that I did my "Christmas Clothes Shopping" early this year. I was at the mall today and was going to pick up a few accessory pieces such as socks for the boys vests. There were no socks in either of their sizes. No prob, I thought to myself, I will simply look online and order them there. Nope, that didn't work. Oh well, even if they go without the "perfect" socks, at least we have the makings for a complete matching photo.'' I also took note while at the mall that they were out of everything in the boys sizes. So glad that I bit the bullet this year and didn't wait on the clearance sale. Now if I could just get my Christmas cards ready and actually mailed then I might get to really "enjoy" the season. I'll keep you posted on my progress.

Life lesson: Shop for Christmas clothes in early October. I would have never guessed this.
