I recently flipped my calendar over to the new month.
NOVEMBER
November is such a nostalgic month isn't it?
Or maybe it is just because "Nostalgia" is my middle name, as some might say.
But when you think of November what thoughts or memories flood your mind?
Here is what November means to me:
cooler temperatures
crackling fires in the fireplace
pumpkin everything
celebration of many birthday's
loving thoughts of those who are no longer here with us
a cup of tea and a good book
wearing sweats and ugg boots
connecting with friends and family
the sound of rain falling upon my roof
candles aglow with the sweet smells of pumpkin, apples & spices
and last but not least...
A time to be Thankful for all of our many Blessings.
And to give Honor and Praise to the One who provided each one.
This Thanksgiving we will be celebrating in the South;
Texas-- to be exact.
While we join hands around the table in prayer,
on this day, to give thanks to our Lord for all of our Blessings;
we will be holding a new little hand,
as she celebrates her very first Thanksgiving Day.
For, we hope she always knows how thankful we are for her,
and how very much she is loved.

Awww! Hold onto that chubby little hand. I wish we could all be together for Thanksgiving. I will cherish all the great memories we have had growing up. Thanks for sharing Crickit "Nostalgia" Caputo.
Thanks Sissy!
Your list reminds me just how nostalgic November is. Enjoy . . .
November means
-family birthdays (4 to be exact)
-parent-teacher conferences (much prefer attending them now to when I used to conduct them!
-Turkey!
Love the picture of your little turkey!
Change the tea to coffee and the rain to snow and you've covered my list!
I can't imagine the joy of having a precious brand new soul at the Thanksgiving table for the very first time (especially one that chubby and beautiful and perfect)... I can't wait!
Blessings, Debbie
Ohhhhhh I love your version on November and celebration of the the One who makes everyday a day to give thanks!
dee dee
Holding a warm, soft, little hand is the best way to celebrate Thanksgiving. Through in some kisses and hugs and you are all set. Who needs turkey when you have those?
Isn't that just a precious picture. I have been reading out loud the story of the Mayflower, the pilgrims, the first Thanksgiving...it is such a good reminder of how our nation started and how grateful they were through all their struggles.
Have a great trip.
