Thankful Tree

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and I wanted to do a little craft to get us in the spirit of giving and being thankful. My sis and I decided to make a thankful tree. I got this idea from a friend last year and just thought it was so cute. The kids loved painting the leaves and Arlo really got in to making a list of what he is thankful for.

Our finished product

Fall Leaves

Today Clint took the boys outside to play in the leaves while I had at least 30 minutes of pure bliss inside. What counts as bliss these days? Sipping some coffee, listening to some tunes (Jose Gonzoles) and sweeping my floor with absolutely no interruptions. As I was taking it all in I glaced out the window and saw all three of my boys playing so cutely in the leaves. I opened the window and snuck a few pics.

Arent they cute?
