Thanksgiving is here!

 

my golden leaf necklace my Mother gave me long  long ago. Every year around the first week of September, one of us would call the other and say "it's almost Fall, is it time to get our Fall leaf necklaces out and wear them yet?"

I got these books about the Pilgrims and the first Thanksgiving for Fairy Granddaughter. Hope that she likes them and likes learning about history. Two of the books had such big colorful picture pages, I'm sharing them here, maybe you will like them too.

see how beautiful and colorful the illustrations are?

Tracie loves her sunflower dress! Here she is ready to serve up the sweet tea for Thanksgiving!

I have a big stack of magazines I hope to get to this weekend:

Our church had the annual Thanksgiving supper this week. Sure enjoyed it as you can see from my heaping plate here! ha ha LOL. There were loooong tables of food, and loooong tables of just desserts too.

Our Fall has been very nice and hope yours was as well. Truly we are so so thankful for all our many blessings from God. Happy happy Thanksgiving and enjoy the Holiday weekend!

Eat, drink, and be merry, and don't forget the annual big Macy's parade!

These folks have a lovely street garden every year! I love to go see what they have each year!

sunset cruise headed out

pretty cotton candy pink clouds

This house is always decorated so nicely!

and out here, in the country...........

November has arrived and the sweltering hot days of summer seem to have stopped for the season. I love the cooler days and sweater weather! Porch sittin' in chilly weather suits me just fine. LOL

the cotton is being harvested and baled up!

Brand new crops are planted and are so bright green! I have no idea what this crop is!

and there are bright splashes of color on some trees, so pretty to see

and I am still unpacking all my treasures and finding new places for them--I'm going very sloooooow, LOL!

There are lots of neat new things to see out here. Like this strange mushroom spotted last week!

the Crown has started back up. Is anyone watching?

Hope your week is starting off great! How is Fall in your neck of the woods?
