Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
It's My Party Day is today. Let's have a party and celebrate. What a great opportunity to have some fun. It's a party day. You can make it simple, or elaborate. Invite family and friends. Being mid October, a Fall or Halloween theme is in order.
Life is too short. Whatever you do, have fun and enjoy the celebration on It's My Party Day!
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
I am thankful for the mess to clean after a party because it means I have been surrounded by friends.
Nancie J. Carmody
Every day is a reason to celebrate and having a party is one way we can do that ! I may not be having friends or family over today but that is no reason I can't have a party. A party is always a happy time and as for me I’m happy!
I’ve got my fall decorations up. All that is left now is the very few that I’ll add when November rolls around. I’ve a few turkeys that are still in the tubs just waiting to get out of their pen and join in the celebration.
This time of year party foods range from Octoberfest, to football games, to Halloween. Next weekend I’ll be doing the 3rd Sunday Dinner here at my house and decided to go with an Octoberfest theme. My menu will include but will not be limited to the list below
Grilled Brats, Wieners, Polish Kielbasa and Cheddar Sausage
German potato salad
sweet and sour red cabbage
Spaetzel
and Sauerkraut
There will also be rolls and a platter of cheese
Sounds festive to me.
Thankfully we’ll be seeing some sunshine today! That’s another reason to celebrate ! The pictures are of some of the celebrations going on with my family lately.
I hope you all have a SUPER Saturday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
The grace of God means something like: Here is your life. You might never have been, but you are because the party wouldn't have been complete without you.
Frederick Buechner
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
3205. for parties of all kinds, every day is a celebration
3206. for a menu all planned, now all that is need is the fixin'
3207. for family and friends to celebrate with
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
75 Days Until Christmas
Now is the the time to make an appointment with a photographer for your family’s Christmas portrait to be taken so that you can get the pictures back in time to send with the cards. If a professional photographer is not your style or in your budget, then make an appointment on your calendar to take a family photo out in your yard or in another meaningful spot.
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU !
ADVICE FOR TODAY
We can make this thing into a Party, instead of a Memory.
Will Rogers
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,
ma
You're blessed when you're content with just who you are—no more, no less. That's the moment you find yourselves proud owners of everything that can't be bought
Matthew 5:5 (MSG)

Such cute party pictures :) I like your idea for the menu for your Octoberfest meal next week, Ma! It looks yummy!
betty
Oh, your menu sounds delish!
As a kid I wasn't fond of German potato salad ... nor have I tasted it since my dad passed back in '81. This has just given me the notion to dig out my mom's old recipe and make it. (As soon as our weather cools, that is!)
