If sauce is too thick, add a little milk. Serve over pasta. We tried this a couple of weeks ago and really liked it. It is super easy, and tastes really good!

Count Your Blessings by the Collingsworth Family

I am so thankful for the change that Jesus made in my life. Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. II Corinthians 5:17

I loved the way these clouds looked tonight as I was leaving work...

Continuing with the "Thanksgiving" themed songs, here is "Thank You Lord, For Your Blessings On Me" performed by Gordon Mote and Jason Crabb.

Today is 11-11-11. Veteran's Day. Do you have any veterans in your family? I do. My husband, my father, my uncle, and my grandpa were all Veterans. I know at least one of my Grandpa's brothers was in the service as well, maybe two of his brothers.  I think a couple of my Grandma's brothers served in the miltary as well. My Dad, uncle, and Grandpa were all in the Army, and my husband served in the Air Force. Grandpa served during World War II, and was overseas in Germany. He talked about his time in the service a lot, especially as the Alzheimer's progressed. Sorry, these photos are old, and not in the best condition. Grandpa Miller Dad and my Uncle Don served in the Army during peace time, as my Dad called it. They Dad was stationed both went to different countries, my Dad to Panama, where he met and married Mom, and my uncle in other countries. Uncle Don spent more time in the service than my Dad did.

Here are some of the things we have done lately... After my birthday at the beginning of October, we went to an IU football game...they lost...:( It was a fun experience though. We went to our nephew's flag football game. It was pretty cute. :) Carl and I took two of my Junior Church kids to Toys R Us and McDonald's one Saturday. It was a special prize for learning memory verses. We went to my Grandma's annual bonfire and hayride. I always love going to that. It is one of my favorite things about Fall. We went to a Booth Brothers concert in Bluffton, IN. We love the Booth Brothers. We made a quick trip to Brown County State Park. This was the last Saturday in October, so a lot of the leaves were already off the trees. There were still some beautiful places down there though. Life is busy...sometimes too busy. I have to constantly remind myself to take time for the important things in life, and not to worry about the small stuff. Easier said than done someti...

During the month of November, all my Music Mondays will be songs on the theme of giving thanks. This one is by Charlotte Ritchie. It is called "In Everything Give Thanks." It reminds us that we can always find something to be thankful for, even in what may be considered bad situations.
