A Thanksgiving Miracle~

While I was thrilled to be able to spend time with these two...


Something far bigger was taking place this past week.  Something that could only be considered a Thanksgiving miracle.  For you see, God put three bloggers together last week, and the most wonderful thing happened.

To read all about it, please visit Nana Diana.

It is a story that is sure to put you in the Christmas spirit!

Happy Thanksgiving From Our Table To Yours~

This post is a little late, but as I like to say..."better late than never."

This morning we awoke to gusty 40+ mph winds, and then IT happened...yes, I had just gotten out of the shower, started applying my makeup, and the first bang was heard, then the next, followed by the lights flickering, then another bang-bang-bang (okay, by now I'd lost count)...and then total darkness, wet hair and all! UGH!!!

We would not regain power until several hours later.  I was just praying it would come back on in time for me to rewet my hair, and dry it prior to having to take the baby to her doctor's appointment.  I know, most would just go with the flow and put it up in a pony tail and call it a day.  Well, I would have too EXCEPT...I cut my hair short a few weeks ago, and let's just say...it ain't pretty left to dry on its own!! LOL  Yes, call me vain...but I was not about to have a bad hair day today.

Fast forward...the table is set, and several dishes are in the oven.  Yes, I cook most ahead of time since we own a condo size oven despite we live in a house big enough for a family of 4 or more!!!  Let's just say our poor little oven and toaster oven get a workout this time of year.

So without further ado...from our table to yours...Happy Thanksgiving.  May your day be Blessed with family, blessings, laughter, and a grateful heart!

A peek at our Thanksgiving Table & a favorite commercial~

Wanted to share a quick sneak peek at our Thanksgiving table, and share one of our favorite Thanksgiving commercials of all time.





Each year I pull our little chubby couple out when setting the table for Thanksgiving Dinner, and can't help but remember this commercial.  Makes me laugh every time.  Publix has the BEST holiday commercials.  The one for this year has me laughing so hard, tears run down my face.  I mean, "who gave them permission to film my family?"  LOL  I think we can all relate!

Will have more pics of our table tomorrow.  In the meantime, we are enjoying have baby girl home with us!  Thanking God she flew out of Austin and not Dallas.  I feel for those stranded in airports!!!
