a Happy Thanksgiving, and more reasons to be thankful in the coming year.
One of mine is all of you, for your caring, concern, encouragement, prayers, and support.
The last large sampler I stitched, Polly Cole, was done by Lori Rippey. If you follow her blog Homespun Prims, you know the ordeal they have been through with her husband's surgery and complication, and how grateful and thankful they are. A Go Fund Me page was started by their friend for the expenses to adapt their home to his new condition.
Our favorite bean casserole, cranberry salad, and sweet potato casserole, are all made and ready to bake tomorrow. Apple pie just came out of the oven, gala apples are my favorite. Personally, I would rather have spaghetti. Always spaghetti.
Most of the trees are down from the attic but the ornaments and remotes are not yet. I am so glad all the trees are plugged into remotes so there is no bending and reaching for a switch. Not sure if I want to put out the brown wire trees we got on clearance last year. I haven't seen them this year and am weird about using things I love for fear I won't be able to replace them in case of loss. But it would look very nice on the front porch, or maybe in the yard off the back deck.
One of my favorite movies, Signs, has been on and I can watch it over and over. Joaquín Phoenix, the children, and Mel are all believable and great. Even though basically science fiction, the underlying theme pulled me in. My cousins didn't get it, and I don't understand why not. As Mel asks Merrill, "are you the kind that sees signs, sees miracles? Or do you believe that people just get lucky? Or, look at the question this way. Is it possible that there are no coincidences?" The end answers it for many of us. Good movie!!!
Have a wonderful day.

Marly and family: A happy and Blessed Thanksgiving to you.
Love your Santa, I have not even thought about getting Christmas stuff out yet, I need to decorate the trees at the Unborn Child Monument at the Cemetery first, Mike is in charge of the cemetery for Church.
I love the tree lit up so pretty, the Santa ornament is so sweet nice finish.
Blessings
