Thanksgiving

Pumpkin Roll
Wishing everyone who will be celebrating Thursday a very Happy Thanksgiving.

Preparations are underway at my home.













The turkey is thawing in the refrigerator.















Favorite recipes are gathered and the menu is planned.   Now all that remains to be done is the cooking and setting of the table.    No perhaps there is something more...remembering all the reasons one has to give thanks.   My list is long - how about yours?

     "Come let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.   Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song."   Psalm 95:1-2 (NIV)      


Have a blessed Thanksgiving and a great end to November.    Hope to see you in December!  

Hugs Debbie
