Our girls have had so much fun with the costumes that were left here from the Middle Ages and Renaissance Times. Alex wrote a play about a spoiled princess who was mean to her servant, and a magician came and granted the servant to teach the princess a lesson. The princess was now the servant, and understood she should be nice and not treat others unkindly. It was very cute and creative, the girls definitely love performing!

We had a couple really great lessons on nutrition and the food pyramid. I think it’s helped my kids understand a lot more when I say we shouldn’t eat something because it’s not healthy for us. That doesn’t mean they still don’t want it, but at least I have another resource besides myself that also teaches the same principles! It’s not just mommy saying they shouldn’t eat it. Also it’s helped them understand we need a little of all the different kinds of food, to not just eat meat or bread throughout the day, but that we need a balance of everything. They did a great job creating their pyramid!

A reporter for our town wanted to do a bit on the fundraiser that the kids did, so here’s a pic we sent to her to put in the paper. Whether she does it or not, we have it journaled now for the girls to remember forever.
