~ Thanksgiving dinner ~
O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.
1 Chronicles 16:34
Both of my older children came home to spend the night with us. What joy to have all five children together! We watched a couple of movies last night, and then enjoyed a bit of Brian Regan on Youtube. At 11:30, I headed to bed and left the children to their visiting. They did not go to bed until around 2:00 this morning.
I got up at 3:30 to straighten up the house for our big day. I love the quietness of the early morning - enjoying the fire in the wood stove, morning coffee, and preparing for the day.

ReplyDeleteI too love those early mornings, the quietness and peacefulness causes one to feel the presence of the Lord in such a beautiful way, doesn't it?

Hello Debbie,
DeleteYes, I know... that following link does not seem to be working. I don't know what to do about it, but I appreciate that you attempted to follow my blog.
And, YES, I think that God made the morning so beautiful just for that reason - a quiet time to appreciate all that He has done for us.
Thank you for stopping by,

What beautiful desserts! It's so cool to see what others are doing for the holiday. I love that your children come to your house. What a blessing! Five children! God has blessed you and abundantly!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous, abundant spread. Your family is so fortunate to have you to prepare such a fantastic holiday feast for them. It's awesome that you had all five of your kids at home and that you guys were able to celebrate together as a family. That's the way the holidays should (ideally) all be.
ReplyDeleteMany hugs & joyful blessings for the coming winter!
