Ultimate Collection of Thanksgiving Printables

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. It is always good to be mindful of the many blessings God has bestowed upon us. And I’m glad our country sets aside a day dedicated to doing so. Over the years, I’ve published lots of resources that have a Thanksgiving theme. I thought this year would be a good time to gather all those free printables together. Hopefully, that will make them easier for readers to find. So here you go: It’s our Ultimate Collection of Thanksgiving Printables. Enjoy!

Favorite Recipes for Serving the Ultimate Thanksgiving Feast

I’d planned to link a lot of the recipes our family traditionally eats at Thanksgiving under this section. But then I realized, I’ve never posted most of them. I will do my best to remedy that before time to start cooking next November. In the meantime, here are the few I could find already on the site:

  • Broccoli and Cauliflower Salad – Our kids are wild about this one. I mix it in a punchbowl and seldom have leftovers.
  • Hominy Casserole – My mom didn’t make this one when I was growing up, but it has become a staple of our Thanksgiving feast in the years since I left home. We make a double batch to feed our big crew.
  • Green Bean Casserole – This is the old standard recipe found on the back of the fried onion container. I’ve experimented in making that recipe a little more healthful. I’ll post a link here once I perfect the nutritious version. Ha!
  • Homemade Cranberry Sauce – My daughter started making this sauce from whole, fresh cranberries and oranges several years ago. I don’t even care for the canned stuff, but her homemade sauce is delectable!
  • Pink Stuff – This is the cherry and pecan salad my aunt always brought to Thanksgiving dinner at my grandparents’ house. But it tastes more like a dessert than a salad.
  • Chocolate Delight – This was always my dad’s first choice.
  • Texas Sheet Cake – My sister and son Samuel’s favorite.
  • Pecan Pie Muffins – Feed your crew these muffins on a Thanksgiving morning. It will quell their cravings long enough for you to finish the turkey and dressing.

Cultivating an Attitude of Gratitude (One of Our Ultimate Goals)

  • We Find What We Look For – Do you see the glass half-full or half-empty? Whether you hunt for reasons to be happy or reasons to be miserable, you’ll likely find them.
  • God Deserves our Gratitude – Are you rightly thanking Him for these 6 blessings?
  • On Accepting “Unchangeables” – According to the Bible, you are fearfully and wonderfully made. When is the last time you thanked God for knitting you together precisely as He did?
  • Be Thankful… and Give Thanks! – There is no such thing as unexpressed gratitude. If you never show appreciation, it doesn’t count.

That’s it for now. I’ll do my best to update this Ultimate Collection of Thanksgiving Printables as I add new resources. In the meantime, you’ll find our most recent additions here: Thanksgiving-themed Posts.

Keep Counting those Blessings

In the meantime, are you looking for a more personal way to infuse your heart with gratitude? Then check out my devotional journal, Count Your Blessings.

Count Your Blessings

“Bless the LORD, O my soul,” the psalmist writes, “and forget none of His benefits.” That’s good advice for all of us. We should be mindful of the many ways in which God has blessed us. This journal is designed with that goal in mind.

Use its pages to remember the Lord’s mercies and be grateful for them, to count His blessings and name them one by one, to track His faithfulness to you through the past and, by doing so, to be encouraged to trust Him with the future.

Every spring, I pull out my little Easter journal, Every spring, I pull out my little Easter journal, read through it again, and complete a few more pages.  Packed with scripture, word studies, writing prompts, and gorgeous vintage artwork to color, it’s a great way to focus my heart and mind on the unfathomable love and unmerited grace that compelled Jesus to conquer sin, death, and the grave on behalf of all who put their trust in Him (including ME🙋‍♀️)!  If you enjoy coloring, journaling, and/or reflecting on Christ’s love, you can find BECAUSE HE LIVES — along with all of my other devotional journals — on Amazon.

I love leaving all our windows open to let the lig I love leaving all our windows open to let the light shine through, but the glare off this white wall blinds me whenever I’m washing dishes at our kitchen sink. So I decided to paint a mural to help absorb some of the reflected light!  Also, I figured it would be easier to keep painted shrubs and flowers alive than the real thing since we don’t have a sprinkler system and I sometimes forget to water the real stuff until it is limp and wilted — or worse!  #flandersfamilyhome #wallart #outdoorproject
I finished listening to David Epstein’s RANGE ye I finished listening to David Epstein’s RANGE yesterday. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️  What an inspiring book! I told my husband, who’d read it years before, that this book really made me grateful we had chosen to homeschool.  “That’s exactly what I thought when I finished reading it!” he responded.  It’s not that one CAN’T learn to think broadly in a traditional classroom — Doug and I both attended public schools as children, earned specialized degrees in college and graduate/medical school, yet still managed to retain a healthy curiosity about a wide range of topics.  It is just that our modern educational system favors benchmarked learning and early specialization, often at the expense of making interdisciplinary connections or pursuing tangential topics.  Each teacher piles on homework in a given subject, seldom pausing to point out how the material being presented in one course relates to anything the student is learning in other classes.  Modern classrooms stress outcomes, grades, results. They have little time or patience for the kind of “mental meandering” and experimentation that is vital to innovation.  Happily for us, that hasn’t been the case with homeschooling. We teach our kids the basics, expose them to a broad range of books, people, places, and ideas, let them delve deeply into investigating topics or developing skills that interest them, and discuss with genuine enthusiasm and appreciation all the things each of us are learning — collectively and individually — and how it all fits into the framework of our Christian worldview.  As parents, I don’t think Doug and I deliberately set out to create that kind of environment for our kids when we first started teaching them at home, but by God’s grace, that is what our homeschooling experiment evolved into. And books like Range make me extra thankful that is the case. ❤️  #flandersfamilyreads #bookstagram #homeschooling #lifestyleoflearning #recommendedreading
Today was “Disney Day” at our homeschool co-op Today was “Disney Day” at our homeschool co-op.  Abby dressed as my all-time favorite Disney character, Belle. She was smart, loyal, compassionate, and loved to read. 📕  Gabriel dressed as Pongo. This tenacious Dalmatian was courageous, resourceful, and made an excellent father. 🐶  And I dressed as a Public Service Announcement: Parents, make sure you watch your children around Disney as vigilantly as you’d guard your puppies around Cruella de Vil!🚧  #homeschoolcoopthemedays
I was privileged to get a sneak peak at Hard Is No I was privileged to get a sneak peak at Hard Is Not the Same Thing as Bad, chapter by chapter, as it was being written And I absolutely loved it!  Now (at last!) it’s officially available for preorder. I ordered mine yesterday and can hardly wait to read the print copy, complete with gorgeous artwork from @paintandprose and the unique perspective Dad shares the end of each chapter!  I’m overjoyed to think how incredibly blessed families across the globe are going to be when they read the timely, encouraging, biblically-grounded message presented in this beautifully written book. ❤️  #flandersfamilyreads #bookstagram #hardisnotthesamethingasbad
On this date in 1987, my husband officially asked On this date in 1987, my husband officially asked me to marry him before slipping onto my finger an antique diamond ring his grandmother had taken off her own hand two days earlier and hand sized to fit mine.  He proposed on bended knee in the living room of his grandparents’ house in Corpus Christi, with Nanny and Poppie looking on, offering constructive criticism, and making him back up and re-do all the parts that THEY found unsatisfactory the first time. 😂😂🤣  The truth is, Doug and I had already been planning our wedding — and, even more importantly, discussing our hopes, dreams, and expectations for the life we’d share together after the ceremony — for months before his grandparents insisted he formalize things with an official proposal of marriage and a gorgeous ring I’ve worn proudly ever since. 💍  Either way — with or without a ring or a formal proposal — my answer to the question was a resounding “YES!” Agreeing to marry Doug remains one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. ❤️❤️❤️  #officiallyengaged #happilyeverafter

One thing the kids and I enjoy doing on vacation i One thing the kids and I enjoy doing on vacation is working puzzles. We start a 1000-piece jigsaw as soon as we arrive at our destination and race the clock to finish before time to leave.  Abby especially enjoys puzzles and is usually the one pushing for us to continue this tradition, although she abandoned me most of our evenings this trip to play pool with her brother.  Gabriel is an early riser though and made up for it by working on the puzzle with me in the mornings.  Dad and Nana aren’t huge fans of jigsaws, but we saved the last two pieces for them to put in, so they could say they helped, too. 😂
