• At our ladies Christmas party this weekend, we decorated sugar cookies! Who knew there was a pro among us but she shared all the tips and tricks...and even I was able to create a cookie:) For someone who can't draw a stick figure with a ruler, I thought these were ready for the next Christmas cookie bakeoff!! #atadtoopleasedwithmyself #christmasfun #sugarcookiedecorating

  • On special days, my daughter always arrives with flowers:) These are the last of the Thanksgiving ones. The last fall color. I recapped our weekend on the blog yesterday and last night we finished the last of the leftovers. I guess that's a wrap:) #hellochristmasseason #bloglinkinprofile #sweetdaughterofmine

  • A busy, rather bittersweet, post Thanksgiving weekend for us. It was the last few days before my brother started his new chapter and fresh adventure....moving to Asia. He spent several days at our house which was wonderful but also busy. There are a lot of last minute details when one is trying to pack their life into two oversize suitcases!! But it was great to just be with him...and I'm super excited for him. His plane left 23 hours ago. He has about two more to go before he arrives at his hotel!! Oy vey. #vietnam🇻🇳

  • Our Thanksgiving included a hike. It was a great afternoon....part of a wonderful day! Almost perfect. With all that is special, there is always the reminder of what is hard. Or heavy and troubling. Or who is missing. Holidays are often like that...a two edged sword, so to speak. It might be difficult relationships, finances, physical challenges or health problems. Or it might be grief. Grief tends to complicate happy holidays...but God continues to give grace. Continues to meet us where we are each year. Continues to give us joy even in our sorrow. I am thankful for another happy Thanksgiving....even while we miss our sweet Tyler! #holidaysandgrief #missingsomeone #tyler💙 #hikingtherapy

  • In his 1863 speech to declare a national day of thanksgiving, President Abraham Lincoln said, We are prone to forget. Much as changed in our country since then but those wise words have not. We so quickly forget God's provision and abundant blessings. His grace and His faithfulness. To us as a country...to us in our churches and in our homes. And to us individually. I'm grateful for this season, this week and for Thanksgiving....a chance to refocus and to remember how good God has been. #thanksgiving #ogivethanksuntothelord

  • I've been spending extra time reading about, studying and trying to be purposeful with my thankfulness. It is the season, right? In order to have a more grateful heaft, it seems the Lord has to first expose my ingratitude....not only things I overlook or take for granted but also areas where I tend to take credit myself. It can be a slow and humbling process. But I want a right spirit - in all attitudes including a grateful heart. Praying for a clean heart and a right spirit - one full of thanksgiving. #agratefulheart #abundantlyblessed

  • Spent the day in the city today. Great weather, fun with friends and discovered the quirkiest museum. Grateful for many types of friendships. Some are new while others I have enjoyed for years. Some are casual and others are deep. I have friends of all different ages and in all stages of life. Each friendship is as unique as the friend.....but each one adds such a richness to my life. For today's Grateful Monday, I am thankful for each and every friend that has blessed my life. #gratefulmonday #nationscapital #dupontcircle #friendships
