Thanksgiving--Giving thanks!





Honestly I do not know where November went. It just flew by in a big hurry, just so December could make its appearance. Been sewing and sewing most of the month, in between putting up Christmas decorations inside and out, baking, making some treats like Puppy Chow and White Trash, giving treats away, having family in for Thanksgiving turkey, taking a little Elderberry trip to Branson for Christmas lights, shows and a little shopping. For all of these things I give great thanks . And especially am I grateful for our beloved country, and the people who serve it day by day, in the front lines all over the world, and in our hospitals, on our streets and highways, on our borders, in uniforms of military or medical or police, we are grateful for their protection and help.

Our Elderberries have another blanket project going on, supplying fleece blankets to the children and youth of Rockaway Beach ministry, so this was also a good time to be grateful, being able to work on a "bunch" of blankets for Christmas. Then had to sew up some American Girl doll clothes, new branching out here, for some little girls with their new dolls, one my Grand grand-niece, the other a Grand good friend. Now I am grateful the projects are done, and being shipped out.

Now Christmas is coming, the geese are getting fat (we see them flying over our house every day so we know!), please to put a penny in the old man's hat! And by the way, please don't forget the homeless this Christmas!! God bless us every one, as Tiny Tim says.
