The Center Piece

Over the weekend, I had the kids pick out objects from outside that they would like to put together as a center piece for Thanksgiving dinner. The photo above is what they chose (and I snuck a few gourds in the mix for color). They are excited to be playing a part in the preparation of the day, and had a wonderful time exploring nature in the process. If you've never done something like this, give it a try. It's a calming experience for everyone - as long as you don't try to dictate what they pick. You might even come across a few new discoveries for yourself along the way.

Here's a few more photos from that day...

Have a wonderful day!
