Thanksgiving Day 2011

 On November 22nd in Our Daily Bread devotional, I found these words.


Silent gratitude isn’t much use to anyone.” G. B. Stern

The whole reason for saying thanks is to let the giver of a gift know how much you appreciate something.

Thank you all for being my blog friends and thank you Kim of  Stuff Could Always Be Worse  for telling me we have royalty free photos and clip art at Microsoft Images and that is where I found this beautiful turkey dinner.
