Thanksgiving Blessing Mix

Thanksgiving Blessing Mix
This is a fun mix to give to family, friends or children in your class at Thanksgiving. 
This year we are giving it to our Sunday School class.
Attach one of our fun photo cards too.

What do you need?

Bugles
Small Pretzels
Candy Corn
Dried Fruit or Raisins
Peanuts
Sunflower Seeds
M&M's
Hershey's Kisses

In a large bowl gently mix all ingredients, except Hershey's Kisses.
Place 1/2 a cup or more in a treat or snack bag. Add one Hershey's Kiss to each bag. 
Attach the following explanation:

Bugles: shaped like a Cornucopia or Horn of Plenty, a symbol of our nation's abundance.

Pretzels: arms folded in prayer, a freedom sought by our nation's founders

Candy Corn: the sacrifices of the Pilgrims' first winter. Food was so scarce that settlers survived on just a few kernels of corn.

Nuts & Seeds: promise of a future harvest, one that will reap only if seeds are planted and tended with diligence.

Dried Fruit: harvest gifts from our bountiful land.

M&M's: sweet memories of those who died for our freedoms and promise of a blessed future.

Hershey's Kisses: the love of family and friends that sweetens our lives.


Happy Thanksgiving

Posters....Posters...Posters

Do you need a fun Birthday gift idea for a LEGO fan?
 A fun Kayaker...great for a boys bedroom or playroom.

 Or Speeding in the City!

Some fun ideas for a frame for the poster...

Barn Board
Both posters would look great framed in barn board

A simple frame from Wal Mart

Or tacks

I have a garden poster that I could not find a nice frame for. I did find some fun garden tacks. They worked perfect and look good too.

Do you have some fun ideas for a frame?

Thanking America's Heroes

What to say....Thanking America's Heroes

They serve; they defend; they are prepared to give their lives for us. Our military men and women serve with honor all over the world - and we have a way for you to say "Thank you for your service."  
We have fun photo cards for all occasions.
Serving others...
comes so naturally for you.
Just wanted to put into words what I've thought so often...
Thank you for your service.
