Thank you notes – August 2023

August was another joy-filled month. It took tremendous self-restraint to keep this post to a reasonable size, but I think I managed it. Fingers crossed! Thank you Brooke… …for inviting me to your wedding shower, and more importantly, for loving our grandson and not being scared off by our crazy (and I mean that in…

Thank you notes – July 2023

Warning: I had an eventful, joy-filled July, so I will be sharing more than my usual number of photos this month. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so this post will be photo-heavy and word-light. Thank you Bobbi… …for the fun red, white, and blue nails to help celebrate Independence Day. Thank…

Thank you notes – March 2023

It’s been a while since I published a Thank You Notes post.

Thank you notes: little bits of gratitude from spring 2022

Don’t break out the flip flops quite yet…or at least keep them side-by-side with the snow boots. I don’t typically publish Thank You Notes mid-month, but I missed March altogether,…
