Earth Day!
I decided the night before that we should celebrate Earth Day. Sooo....
We made paper trees,
 |
| (Madeline will tell you all about it in her own little language.) |
went on a nature scavenger hunt,
 |
| ("Mom I can't see you...") |
inspected the growth of the snow peas we planted two weeks ago,
 |
| (Caleb stepped on one of the sprouts, and Madeline pulled up another one) |
and of course, we made Earth Day cupcakes.
 |
| (We even shared some with friends!) |
To finish off the evening, Caleb started our family home evening with a demonstration of how his primary teachers teach, "Who made the earth? JESUS!" (While holding up a pictures of Jesus and the earth.) Then we watched this....http://www.lds.org/media-library/video/old-testament-stories?lang=eng#2010-12-02-chapter-2-jesus-makes-the-earth
All in all, it was a good day.

I love it! They look like they had so much fun! What a wonderful day. I can remember the first earth day in 1972 or 1973. Back then they were worried about a coming ice age!
