I showed you this collage before but I just love it. It is my beautiful grandchildren who are on their way here as I write this. I am thankful that there was no damage to their house or property during Hurricane Ike. Since they have no power and don't know when it's going to be restored they have decided to come and stay with us for a while.So today I am thankful that they were safe and that they are coming to visit us! You might not hear from me until after they leave.
There are a couple of new bloggers joining us this week for Thankful Thursday. Just click on the daisy at the right to see a list of participants.
What are you thankful for today?
Rhondi xo

Rhondi, I am so happy for your coming visit from your family. I too am thankful for their safety. Heaven knows there is so much sadness from Ike. I know you will love and enjoy your family so don't take time out to post. We will still be here when they are home again. Smile.

What beautiful grandchildren, and the blue flowers in all the photos are such a pretty way to tie them all together! I am thankful for home, and family, and love:>)
ReplyDeleteI don't have grandchildren yet. But, I do remember how much fun it was when my children were young and we would all go to my mother's house. I also remember when I was young and we would all go to my nana and Papa's or to my grammy's. They are precious memories. And, I am so glad that they were all O.K. during Ike.
ReplyDeleteMay I join you today in a Thankful Thursday post.

I am thankful I found your blog to visit. I think your picture is just darling. What cute little people. Have a wonderful time with them. Something good comes out of everything. I hope someone watches their house to be sure it is ok when the power comes on. In Ohio, there have been fires from people not knowing what they left on. Have fun.

What a beautiful mosaic of your precious grandchildren! I bet you're thrilled they are coming to stay for a few days!
ReplyDeleteMy ex and his wife live north of Houston, and as of last night are still without power. They had two trees come down and a broken window, but that was the extent of the damage.

Hello Rhondi, what darling grandchildren and how lucky you are to have them to come and stay awhile!
ReplyDeleteLove,Ann
Hi Rhondi, I love the photo collage of the children, you have such wonderful resources of blue and white (and wonderful grandkids). I'm from England and want to ask... what are the glorious flowers in the field? They look like lupins but I'm guessing they are wild flowers. I love them. Have fun! Eli
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful children, and your mosaic of photographs is lovely...Roxanne
ReplyDeleteYou must be having a wonderful time with your grand-babies! Spoil them, enjoy them and make lots of memories!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely collage of delightful grandchildren. Well, it seems that every cloud does have a sliver lining and Hurricane Ike means you get an extra visit with the littlies! Enjoy! Eleanor
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely photos of your grandchildren, Rhondi.
ReplyDeleteHow nice to have them around for awhile.

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI found your Thankful Thursday website last night and would like to join you. I'm just not certain how it works.
I've posted today what I'm thankful for on my blog :)
I know you are enjoying your grandkids, just sorry for the circumstances. Ike was terrible and won't be forgotten for a long time.
Hi Rhondi!
ReplyDeleteThank you for you comment there on my blog. =)
May I say, your grandchildren are sooo cute!!
God bless them! I'm also thankfull for your family being safe from the hurricane.
We don't have hurricanes or earthquakes here in Brazil to be afraid of, but we do have the violence that scares a lot... I thank God everyday for keeping my family safe too.
Kisses from Rio to you!
