Thanksgiving Fun: Our Week of No School!

By thisreadingmama 1 Comment

We took the entire week of Thanksgiving off.   What a needed break (for the kids & me)!  Daddy took the week off from, so we had plenty of daddy time.  Besides stuffing our faces with turkey and spending lots of time with family, here are some fun things my kids did this past week (I didn’t have the camera to document everything, but here are just a few things):

Built a fort in our playroom

Played dress up

Played with the camera  (I’m amazed at what ALuv thinks makes a good picture.  He probably took 30 pictures of Clifford.)

Built words out of pretzels (Hey, I had to get in some learning!)

Of course, we continued to work on potty training NJoy.  He’s nearly got the hang of it.  But it’s still a work in progress. 😉

I’ll leave you with an interesting quote I heard on the Christian radio station the day after Thanksgiving that really convicted me.  “If you woke up tomorrow with only the things you gave thanks for today, what would you have?”  Just a good reminder that thanksgiving isn’t a one-day event.  Our lives should overflow with thanksgiving in every season. 🙂

Thank you for joining This Reading Mama on a literacy journey!

    Oh, I love your resource organization! That pic of Clifford: ALuv has a great eye for photography.
