Three Things...Gratitude Thread

[LuvOrlando]

Cinnamon and sugar together is heavenly to me.
Shortbread or Dansk cookies dipped in tea or coffee.
Peanut butter brittle, someone on the Dis was making it a while back so I gave it a try only to discover that home made is outstanding.

Definitely love the sweets!
The only thing that would be better, is not gaining weight from the sweets so we all can eat them as much as we want - that would be sweet!!

TGIF!
I don’t know why I’m excited - I have to work at 7:30am tomorrow.

Lots to be grateful for during the holidays.

#1 - I’m grateful for the birth of our Lord and Savior. When my girls were younger we always had birthday cake for Jesus on Christmas Day to keep the real reason for season front and center for all of us

#2 - I’m grateful for all my girls Christmas artwork that I hang on my kitchen cabinets and fridge throughout the kitchen - some of these are 20 years old now. The best decorations are made by tiny hands

#3 - I’m grateful for my Christmas decorations from my grandma and my DH’s grandma. Some homemade and some not, but from stores that don’t exist anymore. They are so classic and have so many wonderful memories attached to them. My grandma’s tree topper is from the early forties and is now proudly displayed at the top of my one curio cabinet surrounded by decorations. She looks so beautiful up there and makes me smile every time I look at her

That I can make my world as sparkly on the outside as I want it to be and most of the people around me cooperate
That I can have a multicolored tree in the middle of my house full of tree jewelry and not be judged
That I can put up my little house village and nativity

[1420Elexismc]

1.Getting together with family
2.The laziness of Christmas Day with my family-we just kind of hang out in pajamas and snack all day
3.Having an extra day off this year because Christmas is on a Sunday so we get Monday off(also the Monday after New Years)

1 Jesus! Being able to walk humbly with and to Him to the Manger anew

2 God's extra blessing of (God-willing once again this year) being able to celebrate once more with my beloved Dad both of us healthy.

3 Christmas Cards

 

[Summer2018]

1. Spreading holiday cheer through decorating at home and school; singing and listening to Christmas music; baking for family and friends; sending Christmas cards; and giving gifts.

2. Online church…waiting for the day I can feel safe in the large church crowds.

3. Watching holiday movies and specials on television and feeling cozy at home by the tree.

3 holiday things you're grateful for
1. Christmas carols, including a lot of the contemporary ones. I love music, but I think you've probably guessed that by now from some of my other answers.
2. Christmas Eve and, since it's on a Sunday this year, Christmas morning services at church!
3. This is included in 1, but becuase I love promoting it, the Behold the Lamb of God album by Andrew Peterson. it's just an amazing collection of songs that tells the Christmas story from Genesis to Revelation, and has some of the most powerful lyrics I've ever heard.
