  9. Oh My! I got so excited you were creating another nest...I forgot to give you a couple of things I'm thankful for! How to choose just two!
    First and most important...I'm thankful for my salvation by grace through the shed blood of Jesus. Now...a new home...free and clear because of a grant program to my town. Some would say my being chosen is by luck...but, I know it's a blessing from God...and I am so thankful for it.
    Hugs, Susie

  17. HI Barb,

    You're a busy bee doing another giveaway! Your nests are just adorable. Would love to enter but I'm from Canada.

    But I'll post for what I'm grateful for anyway though cause that easy.

    I'm grateful that I wake up everyday and get to experience God's beauty everywhere I look.

    I'm grateful for my beloved children who I totally enjoy and love with all my heart.

    I'm grateful for my gracious and charming husband.

    I'm grateful for my health and happiness....and I could go on and on !

    ...and regarding Thursday Tablescape .....I'll probably participate next week ( to get the Valentine tablescape off of my dining room table LOL ) but after that probably only once a month.

    With my schedule, I'm lucky if we actually sit down to eat at the table never mind trying to change it every week LOL

    Cheers and take care !

  37. What a gorgeous creation you have made!

    I am thankful that my vehicle finally "died" because now I get a new one- Yeah! (God assured me that when this one gave out on me, there would be another one shortly ahead of it)

    I am thankful that the snow won't last forever and that God gave me another chance to take my kids sledding after this weekend's snowfall (Our snow disappeared and I realized I didn't even take them sledding once this winter)

    Blessings Barbara! Heaven

I've only had my DELL computer for one year and the battery went bad. so my hubs bought a new one....it's going out too after only a couple months. Since It's not detecting a battery source, I've got an unknown amount of time till it shuts down. Oh wee, I better type fast,LOL. I'm off to get another battery:O

I have so much to be thankful for that by highlighting two I'm pushing all the rest to the background...so I'll just say I'm thankful for my family...God blessed me with a wonderful man and two wonderful boys who in turn blessed me with two great girls and a beautiful grand Daughter...and I'm thankful for the act of walking, because I shouldn't be...
    I'm really loving that nest now Barbara Jean...so you do good and make sure it finds a home where someone will really really love it, too!

  79. WHat a lovely nest and jelly warmer pack. I have never heard of the jelly belly and I adore oyour birds nest. IT is so pretty and looks like a real one. I took out my bluebird nests and saved them for a framed collage, they look just like yours. Well, no pearls!

    I am thankful for every morning I wake up. This AM it was to the weather radio booming with an announcement and I had to get up and give my dog Jordan, a tranquilier, he was shaking so bad. I am also thanksful I have had Jordan for 11 1/2 years now and the love he has given to me. He is having some health issues and I am blessed to have him with me every day.

    I am tons of things to be thankful for, but, I will not eat up all your comment space.

    Well, One more! I am thankful that I am a friend of Cora, of Hidden Riches, Secret Places! She brings blessings to me every day with her heartwarming stories of her life with her Breast Cancer and her dog Buster.

    Smiles, Cyndi
