Thankful

I am thankful for so many wonderful people in my life.

This week of Thanksgiving has been the perfect time to let some of them know how much I love and appreciate them. 

Mel, from The Larson Lingo, gave me the idea of baking these cute little pumpkin breads and she made these awesome Thankful printables to go along with them.  I thought they were perfect to hand out to a few neighbors, family and friends to let them know how much they mean to us.

If you want these cute labels, just go to Mel's blog and print them out!  Thanks Mel!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family from Me and My Pink Mixer!!
