Mid-October Celebrations!

Welcome back friends! I hope you are enjoying your October. There’s definitely a little Ann of Green Gables in me, because “I’m (definitely) so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.” Thank you all for joining us for the Thursday Favorite Things party each week. I’m so grateful for our co-hostesses and for all of you! Great beauty and wonderful inspiration every week. Let’s take a little look at some of your shares from last week.

Rain, Pumpkins and a Whole Lot of Beauty! (TFT Link Party)

October 21st already, friends, and we HAVE RAIN in Northern California!!  Soon all of California with the systems through this weekend! They are saying that these are, OFFICIALLY, ending our very long, large, devastating, and costly fire Season.  All I can say and do is Praise the Lord! Thank you to all of you who have prayed along with me for those tragic fires to end. Though this won't take us out of the drought, it's a darn good start in the right direction!

Can you see me? I LOVE to dance in the rain! 

Alright with that piece of good news conveyed, I can move on to welcoming you to this week's Thursday Favorite Things Party! And, I do welcome you and thank you for joining me each week.

Fall This and That ~

Good morning sweet friends. I’m so glad you’re joining me here this morning or maybe you’re joining me here later on into the weekend, either way, I’m thrilled to have you! Well, we finally got cooler weather! Although the days are still in the high 70s and low 80s, at night, they dip down into the upper 30s which is just enough to thrill me to pieces about the arrival of cooler days ahead. I have just been loving and am so grateful for all the inspiration you all provide each week at this party. And the inspiration being provided at that Everything Fall 2020 party. Be sure to watch next week for a special round up of some of my favorites from that.

 Meanwhile, I wish you all well and I hope that you are embracing the new season and are excited to welcome November, and are finding joy in preparing for a very different holiday season.  Please join me and all the other hostesses at this week's Thursday Favorite Things, then click down and join Linda and me at our Fall Everything 2020 month-long party. It ends soon! But, we will have an Everything Christmas month long party beginning soon, as well!

With Much Gratitude For YOU!

 Good morning, beautiful friends. I am so happy you are here. In these very different times, I can not adequately express how much I treasure each and every one of you. You are a blessing to me more than you will ever know. So, please accept my heartfelt gratitude, for sharing your lives and creative talents, which has afforded me a semblance of normalcy that I am can't explain. Please know I see you, I hear you and the challenges that some of you are facing and my prayers are with you.

Fall is my favorite Season and I'm so excited to, hopefully, get to put a sweater on soo. So far, we are still in the 80's, here in Northern California, but I am hoping for cool mornings and rainy nights soon. Well, looks like I may have to wait a little while longer.  Usually, I like to pick a theme from your shares for my Features each week. But all provide such a wide array of talent, that this week I simply chose to feature those that caught my eye first. So here they are, I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
