Some Thanksgiving Ideas I found on Pinterest

4 Creative Thanksgiving Activities:


1. Tell a Story
Children love stories. Take advantage of their natural interest by telling a story (perhaps about a Thanksgiving from your childhood) that will reinforce the importance of showing genuine gratitude. Stories of God’s faithfulness (and your thankfulness) can encourage kids to do the same!

2. Act it Out
Read about the plight of ten lepers who came to Jesus (Luke 17:11-19). Reinforce to the children that Christ praised the one person who returned to thank Him.

3. Make a “Blessing Basket”
Place a pencil and pad of paper inside a fall basket. Encourage kids to jot down ways God has blessed them. Younger children can draw or cut pictures from magazines. Read these blessings aloud and thank God together.

4. Count Your Blessings
Adopt this tradition suggested by Dr. James Dobson. Place several kernels of corn at each plate. At the start of the meal, drop the kernels in a basket as you each give thanks for God’s goodness in the previous year—one word of thanksgiving for each kernel. Candy corn works well for this, too!

May God shower you and your family with His richest blessings this Thanksgiving!

My Chevron Stitch Blanket

Good Morning...... 😃

Just a quick update on my progress, sharing a few pictures of the blanket. I've really been enjoying this new blanket, it's coming along pretty quick. I was hoping I would have it done already, since it's only a throw, but, I haven't had a chance to crochet every day. I am able to work at it after work and on Saturday. Overall I'm satisfied with it, except for the edges....for some reason they always look the worse, and I have to try to cover it up with the edging rows....will see how I do with this one.

Well, here are the pictures, I hope you have an awesome day and God Bless.
