I realize this is an incredibly cheesy (and poor quality to boot) photo of my kids posed with their “sign of thanks,” but they were very proud of it and it seemed a fitting way to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving. Enjoy your food and family. I’ll be back in a few.
And don’t forget to enter my Thank You Giveaway on or before Friday.
Blessings!
[...] During the podcast I shared a Thanksgiving tradition the girls and I have embraced for the past two years and plan to repeat again this year. It’s super easy even for moms who are somewhat craft challenged like I am. Inspired by a craft from Family Fun, the girls and I go on a nature walk and collect natural artifacts like leaves and acorns. When we return home, I spell out “Give Thanks” on construction paper with glue (one letter per sheet of paper). The girls then sprinkle on some of the bits of nature onto the glue. We bring the letters to wherever we’re celebrating Thanksgiving (either my parents’ house or my in-laws’ home), and we use string and clothes pins to hang up the sign by the table where we’ll feast. You can see a photo of the first sign we ever made here. [...]
Happy thanksgiving to you and your family!
