Quotes for your Thanksgiving Layouts

Greetings from Longmont! We arrived late last night, just ahead of the storms. My sister-in-law and I couldn't wait to talk scrapbooking, so we stayed up late looking through stacks of paper. We have fallen in love (love is not too strong a word), with the Prima Marketing papers. We will be selling these very soon on our site. Watch for them - they are really unique and the colors are gorgeous!

Wow - tomorrow is Thanksgiving already. I'll be taking the next couple of days off to celebrate the holiday with family. For today's blog, I thought I'd do something different. I did a little searching and found these jokes, quotes, verses, and blessings for your Thanksgiving pages. If you enjoy them, be sure to check back with our site often, as we will be adding a section called Quotes, Etc., contagious quotes and more for all your scrapbooking needs. In addition to quotes, this section will feature a Scrapper's Dictionary and journal starters. We hope to have this section up and running in the very near future.

A Cornucopia of Quotes (and more) for Your Thanksgiving Day Layouts:

Thanksgiving Day comes, by statute, once a year;
to the honest man it comes as frequently
as the heart of gratitude will allow.
- Edward Sandford Martin

Forever on Thanksgiving Day
The heart will find the pathway home.
- Wilbur D. Nesbit

What do you get when you cross a turkey with an octopus?
Enough drumsticks for Thanksgiving

God has two dwellings;
one in heaven, and
the other in a meek and thankful heart.
- Izaak Walton

Without Thy sunshine and Thy rain
We could not have the golden grain;
Without Thy love we'd not be fed;
We thank Thee for our daily bread.
(unknown)

Why did the turkey cross the road?
It was the chicken's day off!

For flowers that bloom about our feet;
For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet;
For song of bird, and hum of bee;
For all things fair we hear or see,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee!
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Thanksgiving, after all, is a word of action.
- W.J. Cameron

There is one day that is ours. Thanksgiving Day is the one day that is purely American.
- O. Henry

What did the turkey say before it was roasted?
Boy! I'm stuffed!

Some people complain because God put thorns on roses,
while others praise Him for putting roses among thorns.
(anonymous)

So once in every year we throng
Upon a day apart,
To praise the Lord with feast and song
In thankfulness of heart.
- Arthur Guiterman, The First Thanksgiving



Have a very happy Thanksgiving everyone!

By the way, if you haven't read through my blogs this week, you may want to do so! There are still three sheets of Wausau Pearlescent or Metallic Cardstock and three sheets of BasicGrey Mello out there, free for the taking! What do I mean? Read and find out!
