We've been having fun this year celebrating National Holidays. We don't do it every day but we've been having fun talking about and celebrating National Peanut Lovers Day, National Cereal Day, National Strawberry Day, National Chcocolate Covered Nuts Day, Naitonal Cinnamon Roll Day, Naitonal Gumdrop Day...alot of them revolove around food...but not all of them...like My Way Day, Naitonal Anthem Day, Don't Cry Over Spilled Milk Day, and last Monday was Learn What Your Name Means Day. So that is what we did for our FHE activity. Ü
