The “Fruits” of the Harvest
Hope all of you had a great weekend. My family and I did, complete with a 13th birthday sleepover party for my daughter on Camel’s Hump last night. Today was suppose to be about my garden. Now that I know townspeople are watching I need to have my garden up and running the minute the last snow melts. I have hundreds of bulbs to plant, but today was just too cold, that means two hours everyday after school this week.
This Friday is assembly morning. I don’t think if will be as long as the first one. I would like to have a harvest celebration following the assembly. I made a cornhusk doll today. So cute, but I forgot how challenging it is for me let alone my little ones at school. So we are going to need lots of help. I was thinking this Friday could work for us and hoped it would for some volunteers as well. I am proposing that we do the following:
- cornhusk dolls – Georgeanne and one other if possible
- cider pressing (this will be used at open house) – Bear and one other if possible
- sukkah construction – Elizabeth and one other if possible
- language arts table work – Mrs. Haynes, Mrs. McGeorge, and Mrs. Wilcox
All of the above assignments have been made here on my couch Sunday night without consultation with the individuals involved. I will be talking with each person Monday. If everything falls in place, it should be a great Friday morning.
