Thanksgiving in a week...is it possible?!?

How can Thanksgiving once again be here?
Are the years going by faster and faster or is just me?

Is it just supposed to be understood that once you have children the years FLY by?!?

Molly piped up today from the back of the van.
"Momma, I love fall. It's my favorite season."
Amen, daughter.

In the way of temps, it certainly didn't feel like we had much of a fall. However, the colors on the trees were the prettiest I've seen in several years.
What a great way God has for reminding us to be thankful for all He blesses us with.
At least that's what I think of everytime I see His colors of October.
Blessings, thankfulness, grace.
We have been busy in school talking about giving thanks to God for everything that we have. I feel like I should be back in school learning about that. I forget it about a million and one times a day!

The kids have loved learning about the Mayflower, Pilgrims, Indians, the first Thanksgiving, etc. etc. We worked on Thanksgiving Lapbooks. Most of the materials we used to make those we got from http://www.1plus1plus1equals1.blogspot.com/ I know that I've mentioned it a lot on my blog, but it really is such a fabulous place to go for great activities for you kids to do and activities to do as a family.

These photos were taking while the kids were pretending to be the Mayflower and Plymouth Rock. They had a great time doing it. Although Molly couldn't stand Max not finding her (Plymouth Rock) that she got up and led him back there.
