Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!

Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone! Once again, my sweet Momma, Sister and I are cooking and preparing for Thanksgiving. I don't consider it a chore but a treasured time spent with my 2 best friends!

We are cooking chicken hens instead of turkey, pies, cornbread dressing, broccoli casserole, and more! Oh, boy, the kitchen smells good... I so wish I could share the wonderful aroma with you all!




We are fixing many of the traditional dishes that have been in our family for generations. While preparing the food, so many memories flood my mind of such precious times that I wish I could go back to so I could hold onto loved ones who are not with us! Those memories are one of the things I am so thankful for this holiday season!

What a blessing it is to be surrounded by my family, looking around that table and seeing everyone's faces. Thank you, Lord! As we celebrate Thanksgiving and gather with family & friends...let us be thankful for one another, enjoy one another, love one another, treasure one another...and let us always be grateful for the One that saved us all...Jesus...the abundance of God, and may His love fill your heart this holiday season to come!

I pray all of you can gather with the ones you love. I wanted to personally thank you all. I am grateful to have met so many wonderful friends!



My prayer this Thanksgiving is that God will bless us with HIS joy, hope, peace, and love! May we all give thanks in all we do and be grateful for what we have, giving thanks for God's many wonderful blessings!

I hope you all have a Blessed, Happy Thanksgiving!

Fall Back in Love with New Autumn Decor for the Home

Hello Fall... I can't believe today is the official start of the Fall season. Cool breezes will be settling in, but not here yet! It's still quite hot where I live, but I know Fall is just around the corner. It's time for pumpkins, hayrides, campfires, apple cider, cool, cozy days, pumpkin spice everything, flannels, falling leaves, and sweater weather... all things Fall!



This season goes by so quickly, and I love decorating for each of them, so I already started a few weeks ago, so I can enjoy it for several weeks before I start decorating for Christmas; oh my, did I just say that!

I have started with pumpkins, wreaths, etc. inside, but I have been searching for faux pumpkins for our porch. While searching, I found some adorable and cozy items I had to share with you all!

So, to prepare us for the Fall season, I've gathered some festive Fall decor that will deck your home. Check them out below...

Happy Thanksgiving to You All!

Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone! Just busy in the kitchen with my Momma & Sister cooking and preparing for family coming in. The pies are made, and the turkey is in the oven as we speak. We are fixing many dishes that have been in our family for years...my Ma-Ma's(Grandmother) Cornbread Dressing, my Aunt's Brocolli Casserole, my dish that is requested each year...southern country casserole, and always a crowd pleaser Green Bean Casserole. So many fixings and the kitchen smells amazing. I wish there was a way I could share that with you all too!

What a blessing it is to be surrounded by my family. Looking around that table and seeing everyone's faces, I am so thankful! As we celebrate Thanksgiving and gather with family & friends...let us be thankful for one another, enjoy one another, love one another, treasure one another...and let us always be grateful for the One that saved us all...Jesus...the abundance of God, and may His love fill your heart this holiday season to come!

I pray all of you can gather with the ones you love. I wanted to personally thank you all. I am grateful to have met so many wonderful friends through this blog and on social media! Your sweet comments and emails make it fun to do this for you all!



This Thanksgiving...May you all be blessed by the joy of sharing the wonderful gift of God's love. May we all give thanks in all we do and be grateful for what we have, giving thanks for God's many wonderful blessings! I hope you all have a Blessed, Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone...Memories, a Family Favorite Recipe, Fashion, Decor & More!!!

I loved Thanksgiving when I was young, that meant the excitement of going to my Ma'Ma's house and time with my cousins. Sitting at the kids table together, playing board games, decorating our Ma-Ma's tree and eating her amazing I mean amazing home cooked Thanksgiving dinner that my Momma and Aunts helped with as well. It was always so so good. I still remember the taste of her Million Dollar Pound Cake, it melted in my mouth! Oh how I wish I could go back.





And now, the meaning of Thanksgiving is so much more! I still love gathering with family, but now at Daddy and Momma's farmhouse. There is a warmth of feelings when you can be with family... love, joy, and a feeling of peace that is indescribable and so wonderful too! We do all the preparing, cooking, and then gather around the table holding hands and saying grace. Thanksgiving is not just about the food for me, yes it is good, but for me, it is time that I am thankful that we can hold onto one another, encourage one another, share with one another, love one another, and see those wonderful faces across the table, and that is what I am so thankful for!


We gather not just because that is what you do at Thanksgiving, but beacuse that is what God designed our hearts to do. As it says in Matthew 18:20... When two or more are gathered in HIS name, God is there in the midst of them. That is Amazing!!! So I hope you all can gather together and show love and feel love with others this Thanksgiving.



I want to thank you all for visiting, commenting, and supporting my blog here and on social media, it means so much! I pray you all can be family and friends and share time with one another. Whatever you do, be sure to take time with family, share some joy this Christmas, and enjoy God’s blessings this holiday season! I am so grateful, thankful, and blessed to have you all. Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

1 box (14.1 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Pie Crusts (2 Count), softened as directed on box

1/3 cup butter

1/3 cup chopped onion

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 3/4 cups chicken broth

1/2 cup milk

2 1/2 cups shredded cooked chicken or turkey

2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed

1. Heat oven to 425°F. Prepare pie crusts as directed on the box for Two-Crust Pie using a 9-inch glass pie pan.

Happy Blessed Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving Week Everyone! For my family, it is a time of gathering and giving thanks to Our Lord for carrying us through this year. 2020, has been tough for everyone for different reasons, but I know God has been with us throughout it and will continue to be. He is our Constant! This year has been quite hard for our family... with losing 2 dear Aunts, a sweet Uncle, and then my precious Grandmother. (and not from the virus) Also, we lost 2 sweet kitties that we just adored and brought such joy each day. It seems we have been leaning & trusting on God more than ever. Just knowing He is Always there in the Good times and Bad times is a great comfort. I am so grateful that my family will be gathering around the Thanksgiving table this year, cherishing the time to together, seeing loved ones faces, and remembering the ones we lost. I will also be thinking of all of you as well. I pray you are able to be with your families this Thanksgiving! 



Thanksgiving is also the start of the Christmas season... from decorating to shopping for gifts, and family traditions. I love decorating for Christmas and the memories each year doing so with my family. I also love sharing the joy of Christmas and Jesus with others in need. Our family each year always prepares gift boxes for Operation Christmas Child. It is such a blessing and gives you such a good feeling in your heart knowing a child will have a gift to open this Christmas and a message of hope through Jesus Christ! It is amazing to be part of such a wonderful ministry. If you would like to pack a shoebox of your own you can do so by building a shoebox online. Bless Children Around the World Without Leaving Home! *CLICK HERE* Message from Samaritan's Purse-Now more than ever, children need great joy! You can give boys and girls in need a tangible expression of God’s love through a gift-filled shoebox packed from your computer or handheld device. In just a few clicks, you can select toys and other fun items to include as well as a letter and photo to delight the heart of a child. After we pack and ship shoeboxes like yours overseas, local believers share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with children as they distribute them. As a result, families are reached, new churches are started, and communities are transformed. It all begins with you. Pack a shoebox online today!



I hope you have a wonderful time this Thanksgiving week with your Family & Friends! 
Happy Thanksgiving! Blessings to You All,
