Hi there and happy Thankful Friday! It's another week to be thankful. This week I'm thankful for our trip to Disneyland. It was rainy but we still had a great time celebrating my granddaughter's birthday.

So fun!  What about you? What are you thankful for this week?

Hi there and happy thankful Friday! It's another week to be thankful. This was a weird week since there was a holiday on Tuesday. I always thank veterans this week. I have lots of family members who are veterans including my hubby.

But that’s not what I'm thankful for this week. This week I'm thankful for granddaughter time since we're going to be joining 4H. I'm hoping it'll be a fun experience for my middle granddaughter and I.

They had activities for the kids which she loved. Of course we knew some people there and that always makes things a little easier.

We're also leaving to Disneyland today celebrate her sixth birthday. I'll report more on that next week!

Hello and happy Thankful Friday. I'm thankful for girlfriends. I have a regularly scheduled breakfast the first Wednesday of every month with six girlfriends. We gathered this week and we always have so much fun. Lots of talking and sharing stories. I'm so thankful for this group of women!

Hi there and happy Friday and another week to be thankful. We are starting to go through our garage to throw out some things and also organize!

I'm thankful that both hubby and I are both in out "toss it" frame of mind because normally we have a hard time letting things go.

But there is one huge exception since he does not want to toss our old VHS tapes. Not our home movies but actual movies. I know for a fact we will never look at them again and we have them in totes that have not been open in years.  One day...

TGIF and another week to be thankful. This week we celebrated two birthdays. My daughter-in-law and hubby. October is such a great month to have a birthday. 

The thing I'm thankful for this month is hanging out with the ladies in my family. We went to the Renaissance Festival and enjoyed it. It's always nice to get away and enter another land. Next year we all need to dress up!

What about you? What are you thankful for this week?

It's Friday and time to let you know what I'm thankful for this week. We had a wedding this week on a Thursday. The weather predicted rain, thunder, and lightning. It's an outdoor venue.

Yes, we got rain and thankfully that's all. It rained early and ended up being a beautiful evening!

That’s what I'm thankful for. A beautiful wedding in the middle of the week!

Happy Friday! I hope you have lots of fun things planned for the weekend and that the weather is perfect for it!

This week I'm thankful for family time. My cousin had a prom themed birthday party last weekend and it was so fun. The guests really prepared for it with matching outfits and corsages! It was great seeing everyone so fancy. 

Every time I'm with cousins and family, I realize how much I miss them. I'm truly blessed to have such an amazing family on both sides.

Hi there and happy Thankful Friday! This week I'm thankful for a low key week. I think the weather is getting to me because I've been feeling kinda blah this week. 

The temps are lower and there's definitely moisture in the air. Don't get me wrong, I love the fall but the change in weather always gets me.

Hi there and happy Friday! This week went by so quickly and there are many reasons to be thankful.

Monday was my mom's birthday so after dinner, we played one of her favorite games, Chicken Foot. It's a domino game and easy to play for all ages.

The thing I'm thankful for is that even when my teenage granddaughter says she doesn't want to play (and we sort of forced her), she ended up getting into it and having fun. 

The interesting part is that she was on her phone the entire time talking to some friends. I hope she realizes that we were the only ones having family time and I hope one day she realizes how important, rare and special that is.

Happy Friday and another week to be thankful. This week I'm thankful for a safe drive home. Hubby and I went on a road trip to Tucson AZ via San Diego and back. 

The trip was a necessary one and I'm glad to be home!

And my niece had a baby boy this weekend! Yay!

Hi there. Happy Thankful Friday and another week to be thankful. On Saturday we celebrated my granddaughter's 15th birthday. It was so nice and so beautiful. 

We were all together and took the most fun pictures 

This week I'm thankful for Photo Booth photos!

Hello and happy Thankful Friday. Temperatures are still high, this was the first complete week back to school and our street got slurried.  Nope, I don't know exactly what that means because the street still looks the same if not worse. 

This week I'm thankful for another sporadic day trip. Wednesday we took a drive to Elk Grove to the Sky River Casino.

I'm also thankful that neither hubby nor I are big gamblers. I mean it was nice and we had a good time, but I couldn't even imagine how poor we would be if we had this addiction.  In other words, we LOST. 

We had drinks and lunch and I actually put on real clothes!

Happy Friday and another week to be thankful. This week went so fast and I'm not sure why. The new school year started yesterday and we now have a high school sophomore and a kindergartner. 

Hubby went fishing on Monday and caught a beautiful trout. I'm thankful that we both have friends and activities that keep us busy both separately and together.

Hey there! It's Friday and another week to be thankful. I had a busy one but I'm especially thankful for my girls that always show up for me. I hosted a paint party at my home and it was a lot of fun.

We painted this:

My front room all set up:

And some action and group shots

We had a lot of fun and laughed a lot!

Another Friday and another week to be thankful. This week went so fast. My youngest granddaughter turned two and we went to The Great Wolf Lodge. So fun!

It's so nice to hang out with the family and celebrate her birthday. I'm thankful for birthday celebrations, new experiences and making memories!
