A Month of Thanksgiving Day #23, 24, 25, 26 & 27

Five days of thanksgiving to get in this post.

Eclectic Momma
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving! 


It's been snowing since yesterday and we've got a nice blanket that is super pretty. I won't be driving anywhere today, that's for sure. Yesterday morning I took the car to have the tires changed over. Just in time.


Rolls I made for the Thanksgiving lunch/dinner for church 11/24. They were all gone by the time I made it to the line! Fortunately, we all had one the night before heehee. We're making more for Thanksgiving day also.
I got my Thanksgiving/Christmas napkins done- finally. I'm thankful I stopped at four lol. If I'd used the machine, it would have taken perhaps a couple of hours- tops. I did them all by hand. It took weeks




It's a bit interesting, this whole being thankful 'thing'. We have a tree that we put up around this time with leaves we write what we are thankful for on and 'stick' them to the tree. Our tree grows leaves this time of year rather than losing them {lol}. Anyway. Our leaves often have what some might consider silly things; but they are the little things we are thankful for. It's sometimes easy to think of the big things we are thankful for: our house, our car, our food, our family. But to think of things specifically, sometimes that's not so easy. Or is it just us? Our leaves to other people may seem like we are not taking being thankful seriously, but it's not the case. 





Of course on my leaves there's coffee twice {wink}. Oh, and oatmeal. It's the little things in life, as well as the huge things {such as salvation}. 

I'm sure at least 5 things have been mentioned already about what I'm thankful for but I'll add some more. How is it possible to be too thankful?? Pollyanna would understand {wink}


  • Family art poster {that even dh contributed to this time- his contribution is a GoPro Hero camera- it's got a cape, thanks to Lee}

Poor photo quality. Sorry.
Details from our poster.

  • Fox's joy of cooking {he's making fudge for Thanksgiving and will help me make pies}
  • Hubby's job: thankful because there are many who do not have steady employment, it enables us to have the things we need and so much of what we want, it gives him an outlet for productivity {he must be productive
  • Our thanksgiving 'weekend' stash {I've been building it up all month long}


  • Friends who can debate civilly on Facebook {wonder how it'd go in person lol}
  • Teens who don't mind shoveling the driveway's snow
  • Picmonkey for editing photos!
  • God's Word that I can read for myself
  • Hot water for laundry, washing dishes, and showers
  • Sense of humor {all kinds}
  • Technology so photos can be shared, people from diverse places can connect, and information can be found
  • Good books
  • Digital cameras {oh those days when we had to actually wait for the film to be developed}
  • Snow! It is continuing to fall.
  • Family -immediate and extended {how I miss them!}
  • Time spent together as a family
  • Snow tires
  • Close proximity of stores
  • Church that uses God's Word and preaches from it
  • Friends
