The Leaves of Fall
How FUN a pile of leaves can be. I can't wait until our tree grows and produces leaves for us to rake & enjoy!

November FUN!
The weather we are having this November is AWESOME! The kids are having a GREAT time outdoors.
Gobble Gobble!!
I saw a similar craft in the Oriental Trading magazine. And I said "Hey! I can DO THAT!" I didn't want to buy their supplies I just wanted to use what we have. And guess what? This turkey looks REALLY similar. I was so excited! It's a Thankful Turkey centerpiece. It has all the things Melanie is thankful for and Melanie put it together. One of the cutest crafts we ever did.

Operation Christmas Child
I learned about this organization last year but was too late to participate. This year I was determined to do it & get the kids involved. It's Operation Christmas Child through Samaritan's Purse. You donate all kinds of stuff to children across the world. Stuff ranging from toys to hygiene products and you place them in a shoe box type container. You can even write a note to the child in hopes that they write you back. It's a pretty neat idea. I took Kyle & Melanie out shopping & we loaded up these "shoe box" type containers. Kyle & Melanie both wrote notes. I really hope we get a letter or 2 back. It would be really neat to know the person who received our gifts and make a pen pal friend along the way. I'm especially proud of Kyle & Melanie for enthusiastically taking the time with me to help support another child whom has nothing, maybe not even parents. Really, really proud.
