Thanksgiving is such a special time. It's never too early to pass on the love of family and friends to our children! We gathered together with our special friends to enjoy this meal of pulled chicken, dried cranberries, fresh beans, sweet potato fries, cornbread leaves, and turkey cookies, which the kids assembled themselves. It was nice to have a kid-friendly meal with some of their favorites, and to give thanks for each other!

Around the world-Brazil
Soccer was played, rain forests were planted, and a fantastic meal was served that included carne asada, spanish rice, black beans, and fruit salad. The meal was finished up with some amazing Brazilian caramels that the kids made themselves!
Around the world-Egypt
Journey with us to Egypt! We spent a week studying the traditions and customs of this sandy country, and finished off with a feast. The kids made their own mummy dogs by wrapping cresent roll strips around a hot dog, and we served it up with falafel, tomatoes in vinegar, and shish ka bobbed chicken and veggies. I think I'm ready to walk like and Egyptian!
