Thankful Thursday

                   

One of the last football games of the year for my youngest grandson, Liam.  I'm thankful that I get to see him play. (And the temps finally feel like fall)

 Thankful for cooler weather and holidays coming up.  It is my most favorite time of year and I am looking forward to family get-togethers and the blessings all that brings.  

Thankful today for healthy mamas and babies; Jillynne, great-grand baby#4, arrived yesterday and she is just the cutest!  One more to go (for now) and he is due in December.

Thankful Thursday ~ Blooms

I finally figured out how to water this giant and it took off and went crazy. 

It's huge!  The nursery said it was a pumpkin something or other that will bloom again at Thanksgiving in orange.  I hope I can keep it alive that long.

Thankful today for little things that keep me grounded, and family that keeps me busy. 

Praying for my two granddaughters who are expecting.  One, in the next week and the other most likely in December.  For one, it's been a blessing after losing two, and the other it's been a blessing that she hasn't had any problems, but this will be number 3.  So many changes from when I was pregnant with mine, oh so long ago.  They can tell you the sex so early and they have 3D photography to show you what the baby will looks like.  All new to me, but I am older than dirt, ya know. 

I hope you all have a great weekend!

Thankful Thursday ~ Sunrise at the Lake

 

Time at the lake is always so peaceful. 

These cypress tree knobs look like little animals watching the sunrise with me. 

Thankful for the quiet moments, and for the beauty of nature.

Foto Friday 15 ~ Just Breathe

 

Spotted the first Spider Lily.

It is time. 

:)

I photograph for Findagrave, and spotted this the other day.  Very unique, and special! 

We were driving behind these two guys on our way to town, and Mark and I both thought they were cows...til we  got closer!  HA HA.  I have no idea where they were from or where they were going, but stuffed bears?  I cannot even imagine.  Especially in southern Arkansas. 

I'm on my second 10 pound sack of sugar.  These hummers are hungry!! 

 I hope they make the trip wherever they are going. 

I named my porch geese Myrtle and Matilda.  I'm not very crafty,

 but I'm having fun with their outfits.  Don't laugh! 

Well, I guess that is it for the week.  It's been a rough couple of weeks here, so I am behind with posting.  I swore to myself I would improve with that, but life just gets in the way. 

If you pray or can send good thoughts, my step mom was injured & could have died during a procedure and is having difficulty getting back on her feet.  She can't eat much either, and that makes things worse. I am grateful that it was not a worse situation. 

I hope everyone has a good week.  Stay healthy and safe.
