I've waited all year to pull these books out and enjoy!!

I love that I have books at different reading levels for all the kids!!!!!

I'll be back with pics of our crafts. We normally make Thanksgiving turkeys and weaved placemats as well as Pilgrim hats like these. And we'll make some sort of Thanksgiving tree/banner with leaves that will have what we are thankful for. Finally, we'll decorate some white pillar candles with handmade wax leaves in various colors using wax sheets and wax pens we bought from HeartSong years ago.

Nothing fancy. Just the same crafts we've been doing for over 5 years now.
