Giving Thanks

As Thanksgiving draws near, we have so many blessing on our minds. So many people have been affected by superstorm "Sandy" and lost so much. It might be lives, homes and belongings.  Yet even in times of tragedy, we pull together and help each other.  


As we recover from these loses, we must take time for Giving Thanks.






















Giving Thanks 
for being alive.  











Giving Thanks for the harvest.





Giving Thanks the food on our tables.




Thanksgiving is just around the corner and I hope you are thinking about Giving Thanks.



Thanks for stopping by and sending blessings all of those in need - Judy

  1. Judy,

    Your tablescapes are always so amazingly gorgeous. And you are so right about giving thanks.

    Kinda had that thought earlier today myself and blogged a mite about it.

    Hugs.

    Your table is beautiful. I had not thought about a candle in a canister. Thanks for the inspiration. I have three similar clear canisters. I am definitely going to do this.

  7. This is a stick up! Hands in the air and gimme those plates. No, wait...you can't physically give me those plates with your hands in the air. Put your hands on the plates, give them to me, then put your hands in the air. Do it! Do it now! :-) Beautifully set table, Judy! I love all the great accessories you utilized. I think putting those little colorful votives down closer to the table really makes a difference in the overall look. Your napkins are WAY cool, too! I am so sorry about the tragedy that has befallen so many in the northeastern part of our country, and I REALLY hope things go on an upward tick for them soon. It's just awful how hard they have been hit. Tonight I'm praying for their safety in the cold, icy, windy conditions. I am thankful that we have so far been spared any particularly bad weather. I know we will probably get our share over the winter months, though. I hope nothing really bad. Have a good night!

    Yes we do need to remember those who are suffering on the East coast and it is wonderful to see how people have been helping one another. We do have a lot to be thankful for in our country. Blessings to all, Liz
