Lynn at The Vintage Nest is having a Give Thanks Party. The things for which I am thankful have not changed since last year, so I am re-posting last year's post. Of course, anything for which I am thankful is also a favorite thing, so this is my Favorite Things Saturday post as well, and I'm linking to Friday Favorites at The Whistlestop Cafe. I will also be linking this post to The Tablescaper for Seasonal Sundays and to Happy to Design for Sunday Favorites.
Information about sending cards to Heather and Robert is located above the prayer list on my sidebar. Thanks.
Don't forget to go check the links at The Vintage Nest, The Whistlestop Cafe, The Tablescaper, and Happy to Design, and the Favorite Things links below. There are a lot of fun parties in Blogville. Thank you to our gracious hostesses. I will be taking a little blog break. I'll be back for Favorite Things Saturday next Friday. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. laurie

ReplyDeleteWonderful reasons for thankfulness, Laurie! And we're thankful for YOU!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your post about cloche collecting -- would you believe I still don't have a single one (unless you count cake and cheese domes)? I see them from time to time, but I've yet to find a bargain on one. :-(
Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving (and that you're not doing all the cooking for 30 people!).
Warmest regards,
Bill

Hi sweet friend...
ReplyDeleteJust stopping by again to say thank you for joining in with the fun of Sunday Favorites! I hope that you're having a wonderful weekend!!!
Love ya,

Dear sweet Laurie-I am certain of two things: 1. you have the cutest grandkids ever! 2. They are all thankful for YOU! Hop you and yours have a blessed holiday!
ReplyDeleteLaurie,
ReplyDeleteI hope you're having a wonderful Thanksgiving! This year is one we have so very much to be thankful for.
I slept in Heather's room last night and she looked beautiful this morning. Her cheeks were pink and rosy like before her illness took hold. The doctor's are pleased with her progress and she can come home once she is switched to oral pain meds.
Robert and his family are wonderful people and we have been blessed. His surgeon told me he felt Robert was someone visiting from heaven here on earth! He is certain Heather's and our angel.
Hugs, Cathy
I love coming to your blog.. You always have interesting and entertaining posts..
ReplyDeleteall your tables are so pretty and festive..
Holiday Hugs
