I think it’s a good thing to do each week. Focus on the positive things in our lives.
Make sure you link up to the Blog Hop at Brian’s Home and get the code to put on your blog. Then visit all the participants.
Today I’m thankful for our three great grands. We’re also thankful for our granddaughter and her being a wonderful mom. We did lots of Christmas crafts when she was little and she’s playing it forward. We never mastered a gingerbread house, but she has. What a blessing this is.
Hubby and I are thankful that we’re going to visit them this coming Saturday. It’s always good to see them and share lunch together. It’s time to bring all their Christmas and birthday gifts to them. The eldest has a birthday two days after Christmas and the twins have their birthday on January 2.
I’m thankful for all my blogging buddies. Many of you are dear friends. Some of you I’ve met in person and many I haven’t. You bring me such joy each day, week, month and year.
For those that celebrate Christmas may this time of year be filled with love, family and friends, good health and lots of Christmas goodies.
What are you thankful for today?

Would you believe I have never made a gingerbread house? It sounds like fun. Theirs looks like it’s going together nicely. Enjoy your visit with them this weekend. That’s great that you get to spend time with them.
I tried, but it was pretty sad. My granddaughter is most crafty. a gene she didn’t get from me. 🙂
Spending time with family is the best part of Christmas.

You can do the paw prints. They wouldn’t mind one bit. Happy Thursday. 🙂
Thanks for sharing the great grands with us! They are adorable and quite the gingerbread contactors! Sorry we have not been around much this week.

The claws come out when I quit typing…I hope you have a marvellously happy weekend with the kiddos! Barb
