The Gingerbread Man

Hello December!

Well, autumn is officially over. Hello December! Hello winter. Today the countdown to Christmas begins and if we were at school we would be making the traditional advent calendar. The good news is, you can still do the advent calendar at home if you follow my instructions! Take a look at your e-me walls! I also made an advent calendar online with festive photos. And contrary to the chocolate calendars that you can eat all the chocolate in one day and no one can stop you, this one doesn’t allow you to open more than one photo a day. Exactly like it’s meant to be done! Enjoy!!

You can find the advent calendar HERE

Happy Thanksgiving!


Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. It began as a day of giving thanks and sacrifice for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year.
Many countries have harvest festivals. The American Thanksgiving story goes back to early settlers known as Pilgrims. It had been a hard year for them. When their harvest was good they wanted to celebrate.
The American Indians learned that the Pilgrims were celebrating, so they brought some food to the party, too. They brought things like deer meat, shellfish, and corn. Everyone was very thankful to have a good meal and great friends. What are you thankful for?
