What to do Weekends #105

Happy Thursday evening, all! Welcome back to "What to do Weekends"! 

I sure love co hosting this Party with Linda from Crafts a la Mode!
So exciting and nothing inspires me more than seeing the beautiful posts you bring to the party every week. 

With that said you guys have been incredibly busy and keeping me busy Pinning, Liking, and commenting on all your creative posts! 
So, here we go with "The Features". Linda and I are each picking 3 different faves to Feature and share with you each week.

So many choices, but my 3 picks this week were: 
Jenny's adorable bookmarks!
Birds and Soap's Printable Valentine's Bookmarks with a Biblical Verse

Gratitude...A Lost Tradition?

Hello all! I hope you are enjoying this winter time.  It is a rather bittersweet time for me, as I so enjoy Christmas, with all it's traditions and Family time.  And yet, the promise of Spring is just around the corner. This specific time of year, before the middle of January hits,  I am reminded of my childhood and a tradition that I and my siblings grew up grew up with, that seems to be all but lost in today's world of technology. Text messages, instant messages, and Facebook postings seem to almost replace pen and paper, as well as, actual human interaction. I am, unfortunately, guilty of this, too.

I do hope this is just me and my observations, but I'm afraid it has spread much further than just my little world. So, I have a question for you, have you written your Thank you cards yet? Do you know what I am talking about?

What to do Weekends Link Party #104!

So glad you're here! It's time for the Party!
Welcome to What to do Weekends Party!!!

Happy New Year to All! 

Your Top Picks From 2014

Happy New Year, Once Again!  It appears to be a common practice, amongst Bloggers, to share The Top (enter number here) Favorite posts (most read) from the past year. I have never done this. Probably because I am "fairly new" at this, and maybe because I didn't feel I had enough content, in my opinion, to do so.  

But, because I am always, totally and completely, surprised by what strikes your fancy, compared to what I think you may like, I decided to do it this year.  So, with that said, here we go!

Here are the posts you (the readers) liked or read the most from 2014!

Happy New Year! 2015?! Really?!

Time goes so fast. Such a small amount to make sure that we tell everyone how loved and appreciated they are.  Happy New Year! May 2015 be full of abundant Blessings to you all!

Thank you for coming over and joining me, as I make my way through this journey. You are all so appreciated!

I'd love to take a moment to stop and share some encouragement and inspiration with you, that was shared with me: 

"But those who trust in the Lord, will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint." 
"He gives power to the weak!!"  ~Isaiah 40:31 

Isn't that an awesome promise from God? What wonderful knowledge to start the New Year with.

Praying for Joy, Peace and Happiness for you all.
~Theresa
