Pumpkin Muffins and Blessings

It has been a while since I have written a post but today I tried a new recipe and just have to share it! This is a wonderful fall muffin which will be perfect on any table this Thanksgiving. The recipe can be found here.

I started this blog at the beginning of the year in hopes of documenting our year as a family. Although I haven't posted as much as I had hoped, it has been a good starting point. The quilt I talked about in my first post is almost done! I just need to finish the binding. Although I have other sewing projects lined up to be done before Christmas, I am confident the quilt will be done this winter.

With Thanksgiving on my mind, now is a great time for me to give thanks. I have many things to be thankful for this year. I am thankful for my family, the good health we have had this year, and the many blessings we have had. I give thanks for my beloved Grandmother who recently passed and the influence she had in my life. Edgar and I celebrated 10 years of marriage this year. I am grateful to him for allowing me to stay home with our boys these early years of their lives.

Although the holidays can be stressful, it is important to remember how lucky we are, give thanks to those we love, and remember to help those in need when we can. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and remember to count your blessings!

  1. I just found your email with your blog! I think Jeff might have opened it by accident and I never saw it. It is good to count our blessings, isn't it!
