Giving Thanks


This Thanksgiving finds us with plenty of reasons to give thanks. This week we are taking time to reflect and show our gratitude to all the wonderful people who have come by to pay us a visit and the fabulous folks that leave us such warm and supportive comments. A special thanks goes out to the 300 plus followers. We are especially thankful for all the new friends this blog has brought us. Our Thanksgiving wish is for everyone to have a safe and memorable holiday with a harvest of blessings.


November 31st will be the six month anniversary of Ivy & Elephants. Next week we will be launching the What's It Wednesday blog linky party. We cordially invite you to join us as we party our way through the holidays.

So tell us, what are you thankful for this holiday season?

Love,
Patti and Paula
