I’m thankful for the gift of the Thanksgiving holiday. The turkey went into the oven bright and early; and before long, there were knocks at the door and then another and another, and hugs, and smiles, and prayers, and family gathered around this table without an inch to spare. A feast, yes; but oh-so-much more. I love this holiday with its good conversations, and reconnecting, and remembering, and laughter, and love, and hearts thankful for too many blessings to count. Thanks be to God today and every day.
Wishing all of my 365 friends too many blessings to count.
I’m dedicating November to giving thanks! For years, I’ve kept a gratitude journal in which I jot down things that I’m thankful for. During this month when we’ll celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday, I’m going to take my gratitude for God’s good gifts one step further by photographing a particularly meaningful gift each day for my 365 project! I've always viewed the subjects of my images as gifts, but I'm looking forward to this month of intentionally labeling them as such. This will enable me to spend a bit more time dwelling on God's goodness and offering the thanks that He deserves. If anyone would like to join me in this celebration of grace, please do! I’ll be tagging my images: all-is-grace.
@ziggy77 Thank you so very much for your enthusiastic comment and fav, Jo! We had extended family to our home for this lovely holiday, and we spent much time around the table enjoying each other's company.
You can't believe that this could be any better, but it really needs to be viewed on black. Spectacular. What terrific dof and what a fabulous table setting this must have been. I know you must have spent a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family. Fav
@milaniet Thank you for your kind comment and fav, Milanie! Also, thanks for suggesting the black background. We had a wonderful day! My niece and her husband have a 10-month-old baby girl, so we had a baby at the table this year. What fun! I hope you enjoyed the Thanksgiving holiday, too!
This picture surely represents the wonderful time you and your family and friends enjoyed on the special holiday. What a lovely table you prepared for the feasting.
