So Thankful

I am so thankful for the many blessings God has given me this year.  I decided to do something different... You know when you go around the Thanksgiving table, before you eat, and say what you are thankful for?  Normally, Aunt Sally who can talk your ear off, clams up and everyone gets embarrassed speaking in front of people, however they were just talking your ear off!!!  Why is it so hard for us to vocally say what we are thankful for or thank God for what he is done in our lives?

So, I decided to start a mini album this year.  I made this cute little card and everyone just wrote down what they are thankful for this past year.  It was great!  Every one participated and got to read what each other wrote.
Every year, I am going to make a new card and place it in the mini album.  I think this is a great tradition to start!

I also found a new-to-me blog courtesy of Nancy from The Nickle Nook (she is the one who got me started with faith booking!!!)   It is A-Ms Scripture Challenges and Faithbooking.  The November challenge is... wait for it... THANKFUL!  lol   Please stop by and check it out!

Hope you have a blessed day and thanks for stopping by,

  2. Sandy, thank you so much for taking part in my challenge. Your card looks so nice and what a WONDERFUL idea. Now if we celebrated Thanksgiving here is Australia I would be asking you if you would not mind me copying you great idea.

    Bless you
