Around here and Thankful T style

Around here there are lots of cousins days, laughs, loudness, silliness and a lot of love. Thankful for these times and how special it is that they have time together.
Around here there have been some good cooking days, YAY!
Around here I've been sorting and organizing my craft space, little bits at a time. LOVE my new cubicle to hold all my things and displaying special things on the top. Ignore the mess under my table, it's slowly getting moved into new places.
Around here I'm writing daily and loving it. Also taking more selfies to get better at them and comfortable with them. They will be going into a special journal with more writing, YAY!
Around here there has been lots of card playing, I love cards!!
Around here I got to visit Summer at school and get my hair done, so fun!
Around here this girl is getting ready to celebrate her 18th birthday on Monday (tomorrow). So excited and sad at the same time for me, the time has gone by so fast. We surprised her and decorated the house early while she was at work. She loved it.
 
Around here has been full of fun and busy things and some quiet moments too. All of it leaving me very thankful for all I have and the loved ones in my life and here on this blog and my IG.
Linking this up at Elizabeth's where we like to share our Tuesday's and what's new. Stop by and say hello or join in on the fun. Thank you Elizabeth for hosting us again this week.

  16. Enjoyed your "around here" post. I relate to the card playing. I grew up in a family of card players, any game, any time. I don't have enough card players in my life these days to really get a good match going.

    Haven't played cards for ages. Always used to like playing with my Grandad as a child.
