Happy fall and welcome to Thursday Favorite Things! I am so happy to be joining Katherine at Katherine’s Corner and a wonderful group of blogging friends as a co-hostess for this fantastic weekly link party for bloggers and blog readers too! If you are looking to grow your blog, make new friends, and be inspired each week, this is the place to be. *Bloggers: If you would like a chance to be featured, please leave me a comment with the number of your link up. We can’t wait to see what you have to share this week! (If you missed last week’s party you can find it here.
To get the party started, let’s take a look at what I have been up to recently:
On Tuesday I shared my Vintage-Traditional Thanksgiving Dining Room Tour for the “We Gather Together” Blog Hop. Thanksgiving is truly such a beautiful holiday that often gets skipped over in our modern fast-paced society, but 25 blogging friends and I have shared many different kinds of ways to make the day truly special. I would like to invite you to “gather together with us” in celebrating Thanksgiving by visiting my post and then checking out all of the wonderful ideas via the links at the end of my post.
BIG NEWS!
I didn’t get around to putting together a Pin Away Wednesdays post this week because I started a new job yesterday! After taking a few years off from teaching music I had an unexpected opportunity to take over the chorus teacher position at our local high school and middle school. I had not planned to go back to teaching, but I felt led by God to take the position. Yesterday was my first day and I absolutely loved it! I have taught full time and blogged in the past, so no worries, I will be continuing to blog on a regular basis and will still be hosting TFT and All About Home. Next week I will be back to posting my Pin Away Wednesdays series and I will be sharing some other holiday inspo too. As I always say, there’s never a dull moment around the yellow brick home!
