Thanksgiving Friday

I think it's important to count life's daily blessings and here in the US, Thanksgiving is just days away. That's why for the entire month of November, Fridays on my blog will be "Thanksgiving Friday"!

I want to thank Anna Lindsey over at All Things Creative
for giving me this awesome award!

Thank you also to Lauren who featured me on her blog today.

Today, I am also thankful for...

The scent of freshly washed laundry

Buttery scones served with strawberry jam

Puddles after the rain

The first snow of winter

Rainbows!

When the circus comes to town

Starry, starry nights


What are you thankful for?
Have a wonderful weekend!

    Ah, well done! Congratulations! Everyone is giving up thanks at the moment...a good time to do so too. What am I thankful for? It needs some thinking...I think I'm just thankful for good friends and family - and my health and to live in a country and be in a situation where I have shelter, food and warmth and that I have some chance of following my dreams... xxx

    What a great idea! In Canada we have Thanksgiving in October - gives us more time to prepare for Christmas :)
    We always have so many things to be thankful for - we really should have Thanksgiving every month. (maybe not all the food though)

    Hi Audrey, Thanksgiving every month (but with less food) sounds great! Thanks for visiting :)
