Old Ms. Warner had a Farm...

And she is exhausted! But we all had a great time!

Enjoy!

Poem of the Week

Way up high in an apple tree,

I saw two eyes look at me.

I reached for an apple.

It started to squirm…

Oops!

I found a wiggly worm!

Let it Snow...Let it Snow...Let it Snow...

I don't know if you've heard or not...but it snowed today. We were right in the middle of math, and I heard a little voice say, "It's snowing!"--followed by a roar of screams! Needless to say, we did not finish math! We quickly bundled up and headed outside.

Although the pictures don't show it, it was coming down pretty good! It wasn't sticking to the ground--AT ALL--but that didn't stop them from making snow angels! Catching snowflakes on tongues was also a favorite activity! Unfortunately the snowmen and snowball fights of their dreams just didn't happen!

So here it is in pictures...Enjoy!

Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade

We read a book this week called I Know an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie by Alison Jackson (a very funny book!) The old lady ate SO much food on Thanksgiving, she turned into a parade balloon at the end. Most of the kids didn't know what the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade was, so I made a little video to show them. They absolutely love it!

When I was a little girl, my mother would let me watch the parade as she cooked our Thanksgiving feast. I remember the smell of the turkey roasting and the bustle in the kitchen as I watched the colorful balloons and waited for Santa. So if you want to keep your kids busy, or just have some free time on Thursday morning, definitely tune in for the fun.

The parade will be on NBC at 9 am! And here's our little video...
