Muffins, too!

In addition to these photos showing our regular activities from our morning work, we also finished up wrapping our Mother's Day gifts, baked muffins, and  assembled fruit kabobs.  Later in the week, we hosted our annual Muffins for Moms event with much success!

Sandpaper Numbers - rubbing over with crayon on paper to make a booklet of numbers.

  2. It is always well received - the Moms love it and the children so enjoy being the "hosts," not to mention baking the muffins....! :)
