#tgifc134 It's Theme Week at TGIF Challenges!

Theme weeks are so fun! The best part is that they can spark your creativity in so many directions. We think that you will LOVE this week's theme!

 It just seems natural to reflect on things that we are grateful for sometimes. In the US, we are getting ready to celebrate our Thanksgiving. It's a perfect time to slow down for a moment, and recognize all of the blessings in our lives. Friends, families, careers...there's so much to be grateful for. 


Speaking of Gratitude - there is no way we could do this post without expressing our sincerest gratitude for all of YOU!!! All of you who come to this blog, week after week. Some of you play along and post, some of you just might find inspiration or starting points each week. We love the support, the comments - Our team is a fantastic team, but it's y'all that keep us going!!!

We of course want to congratulate our winner from last week's challenge:
