This year I actually got it together in time to make a thankful tree with the boys. I was completely inspired by Dawn’s version at By Sun And Candlelight. Ds4 and I went outside and found a suitable branch, secured it in a vase with some kitty litter and began scouring the web for an acorn template on which they could record their thanks.
The lighting in our house is all funky…we’ve been having very cloudy days and I couldn’t get a good pic of that acorn to save my life lol!
Here the boys are writing up their first acorns…ds3 was thankful for video games and ds4 was thankful for Mom. Insert heart here. :)
It’s kinda scraggly now, but by Thanksgiving it will be full of memories and love. If the cats don’t get to it first.
I’m talking to you, Mimi!
What a great activity! (Mimi sure looks like she's enjoying it too - LOL)
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome idea. We did a Fall door, with all kinds of fall items on it. I will try to remember this for next year, or we can add to our door I suppose.
