November seems to
be a favorite month for counting our blessings.
With the dual celebration of Thanksgiving and Black
Friday (is this not a holiday at your house?), we
give a good bit of thought to our friends and family
members. Setting the perfect table, finding a
flawless gift, and creating homemade gifts have one
main thing in common -- they all showcase the love we
feel for those in our lives.
Ready for a super
challenge? A thankful album. Yes, I did
say an album. I am committing to using the 30
days of November to celebrate 30 people and items
that I am thankful for in my life. I know that
I will not be able to scrap every day of the month,
but I have a special notebook ready so that each day
I can make notes and be thankful. And, to make
sure I keep up with it, I will show it here next
month. Want to join me? I dare you!
I can start
today with I am thankful for my husband.
Eleven years of marriage and countless hours of
driving him insane, yet he is still right there
by my side swiping bites of my cake (see layout
to understand!). With my kids taking up
lots of time and being really cute right now, I
tend to scrap mostly them, but found this
picture that my mother in law snapped at my
son's birthday party. I could not get it
to my scrap desk quickly enough.
Here, I go: November 1, I am thankful for my husband.
Looking forward to being thankful again tomorrow.
Wishing you a happy
month,
Celebrate
