~~Mosaic/Macro Monday~~Month of Thanksgiving~~

One should be thankful all the time.  This weekend was one of those times when the delight of life was so wonderful that you have to sit back and reflect on the magnificent graces that have touched you life.

We began with Mass as a family.  And there was the play, The Lady in White last night and the pride in the work of our oldest granddaughter did as student director.  The fun we had coloring in color books with Neil, Ainsley, and Lindsey.  Watching A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and playing Christmas Carols on the lap harp.   Not the season yet?  What better time to start.

Finally....

Thanks be to God!


Visit Mary at The Little Red House and share in the beauty offered there.   Lisa at  Macro Monday  also has much to offer.  The pictures are grand.

  15. Good morning Cathy, Your mosiacs are so lovely! It sounds like your family had a lovely weekend. I don't think it's ever to early to start the Christmas season. It's such a beautiful time of the year that I wish it would never end. I'm thankful that I found your wonderful blog. You are truly an inspiration to us all. I hope you have a great week.
