As I continue to count the gifts I feel like I have been on a scavenger hunt seeking new things. A wonderful week searching and looking. Thanks so much to Ann Voskamp for leading this journey.
I have opened a LINKY for one month. If you count the gifts of God I would welcome you to link to this post. I would love to visit each one of your blogs.

Thanks for drenching me in thankfulness. Your words and photos splash pure joy.
Delighted to meet you today. I hope you don’t mind if I splash around a bit to get to know you. This looks like a refreshing place to dip into goodness.

Hi Janis,
Nice to meet you. I’m hopping over from Ann’s link up. What fun to count gifts together and to see God’s love in new ways, huh?
