Being thankful I will have to say since I have joined
http://www.aholyexperience.com/
I too began the 1000 gifts in May of this year and I reached the 1300 mark and must continue, as GOD continues to bless me



Today I say thanks for the 18, 931 days GOD has blessed me with

Also I would like to list something that was brought to my mind
1. Thankful for Amber and reading her blogs lead me to the holy experience
2. Thankful to Dayle for the Simple Pleasure blogs ~A simple life showing how blessed we are life's little things and how when we look its those simple things that bring much happiness
3.Thankful for so many ladies on blogpsot that share their love for GOD
4. Thankful for my life blog as she shares her blessings in life.
.


I would like to share some quotes on thankfulness that I like

 “You simply will not be the same person two months from now after consciously giving thanks each day for the abundance that exists in your life. And you will have set in motion an ancient spiritual law: the more you have and are grateful for, the more will be given you.”


“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” — Albert Einstein


“Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy, and change ordinary opportunities into blessings.” — William Arthur Ward


“As each day comes to us refreshed and anew, so does my gratitude renew itself daily. The breaking of the sun over the horizon is my grateful heart dawning upon a blessed world. ” — Adabella Radici



This song kind of says it all !!!

May you too be blessed

Simple Pleasure Nov. 11 2010

My Simple Pleasure

for this week is

a few weeks ago my husband and I

Went out to eat

He left for just a few minutes

I was thinking more like he had gone to the bathroom

he returned with this cute little bag

with multi-colored tissue

looking oh so pretty

I opened it

to find 

A Magnet

 as you see above the saying

however it made me laugh

and I loved the sweet

Simple gift that came from the

heart

I am reminded of that day eating 

by the lakeside 

Harbor we were at

 each time I go

to the refrigerator

Simple but sweet !!!

Quilt Party !!

I have this saying hanging in our house

so true

our lives are like that of a quilt

Pieced together with love

one piece at a time

http://alittleofthisandthat2.blogspot.com/

 This Quilt is a very old one was made by my mother many years ago as she has been gone
for 28 years and it was made long before that but is still together
Amazing that those little stitches still holding together .
I would love to know the name of this pattern , If anyone knows the name for it I would appreciate it .

As I reminisced on this quilt I saw dresses that had been worn by me , handkerchiefs of my dads. Mother did the back in a plaid color as you will see in the picture
As I stood there looking at this quilt and thinking of all the love that went into making this and the care she took with each stitch I could feel this.
 as she made this I just know she was singing as she always sang with all her working in the house I could here those songs and feel the love while standing looking at the quilt

                                    This quilt has keep how many family members warm on a cold winters night ?

                              This quilt was given to me by  my sister in laws mother she made this a few
                               years back all the pieces she  has stitched
                               I have keep this folded over the end of one of our beds

                                  

                                 I think that this one has been quilted on a machine by looking
                                 at the stitches

                                     This is a quilt piece my mother was working on
                                     before she passed away she had just enough pieces of the pattern
                                     made, that my sister in law Nancy had each of us a pillow made
                                     This  is my most treasured quilt piece it may have never been finished as a quilt
                                      I feel the love that was going into it as the first quilt I showed
                                      I know those stitches  were stitched with lots of love and just holding
                                      it close I feel that love ...........................

Simple Pleasure Nov 4 2010

My simple pleasure this week is one of

                                                                   Morning Glories

 
such a simple common flower

yet they are so much more photogenic

than lots of others


Its amazing that every time

                                                                    I take a picture

                                                           of one they seem to light up


                                                                    from the center


                                                             It appears to be so bright


                                                             almost of if there is a light


                                                                  inside the flower


                                                            Thinking about their light

I have thought how we may look all plain and simple

but let our light shine so bright that

                                                       others  would see CHRIST in us

This just spoke to my heart and that I need

to let my light shine as bright as the

                                                                Morning Glories

The light that is within us should

                                                                         
                                                           I hope it would be so bright!!

May the light of CHRIST shine
in you today !!!
