I am taking a day off from reminiscing about last year to write my Friday Fave Fives. Susanne is so faithful to host our weekly group of bloggers who focus on gratitude, on what good things have happened to us in the week. We choose five blessings. Some weeks, it's easy. Other weeks, we have to search our memories for those small things that made a difference in our lives. That's why we do Fave Fives-- to remind us that blessings are there every day, every week.
Edited to add the missing fave...
Here are mine:
1. Our trip to Dayton Air Force Museum to celebrate Warrior Boy's birthday. We had so much fun. Of course, we all kept getting separated when one person would stop to read an information sign and others would wander on. What did we do before we had cell phones? Here is one photo. (you may notice that I am now the shortest person in the room...)
2. (the missing one) As usual, we met with who I am now naming our Coffee Couple, T and S. A close friend of theirs joined us (we do know her, too) and the five of us had a great time. Those coffee dates always make me happy
3. Normality returns. Two Bible Studies I attend took a break over the holidays. They have resumed this week. The teen boys are back in school and we are back to being uber grandpa and grandma.
4. Safety in the snow storms. We haven't lost power. We have all we need to eat, drink and stay warm.
Our little front porch bunny is nearly covered in drifted snow.
5. My sister-in-law found an exercise program and told me about it, and it is working well for me. It's called Yes2next. Free. On You tube. The exercises keep you moving but don't overtax your body (especially if you are older). I highly recommend it.
That wraps up my Fave Fives for this week which I wrote as I was wrapped up in a warm snuggly afghan. Happy Weekend to you all!

...my grandpa taxi service is in operation too.
Loved the picture of your family, Willow. The museum looks incredible!
Normality is a wonderful thing...glad that your Bible study groups are back to meeting again after the holidays.
Thank you for the recommendation for the exercise site on YouTube. I want to go check that out now.
Glad you are safe and warm and that you haven't lost power.
I didn't know that airstream made planes either. My father-in-law used to have an airstream camping RV.
ok first of all I'm only seeing 4 faves on this post....but I love them all!
How fun that museum would be for my hubby! (although he's partial to maritime museums).
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for posting the link to the workout videos. I was just telling a friend this week that I need new ones to do on the bitter cold days because i was so bored with the ones I was doing last winter and some of them were too hard for me with my spine issues. I just added 5 of these to my workout playlist. SO glad you shared!!
We have no snow here except for a dusting on the ground where the sun hasn't melted it as the temps have been bitter cold. Another green January so far for us here in eastern NY.
hi again Melanie. I saw your comment and had to chuckle. Yes the schoharie valley south of us (i THINK you said that's where you lived? ) has snow..they currently have 2-7 inches on the ground depending on where in that area you live. We are expecting light flurries here sunday. I actually would like a bit for the rest of the month because i wanna try snowshoeing but you need at least 4 good inches for that! or so i wa told
