Family Trees and Summer Birthday Friends!

What does a family tree and...

...Golden Barrel Baking Products have in common?

It was my FUN WAY of introducing our Family History lesson yesterday!

I brought a little of my family history to the classroom by making waffles from the pancake and waffle mix my parents make and sell. We first discussed our own family trees and then talked about Jesus' Family Tree. Today we began making a Baby Book about Jesus. I've asked students to go home and take a look at their own baby books, if they have one.

Did you child tell you about the waffles on Tuesday?

TODAY we celebrated Sarah's 11th birthday - which was actually in JULY!

This afternoon we celebrated Clark's 11th birthday which was in early August!

Waffles on Tuesday and...

...Long Johns (donuts) today!

Delicious!

So cute!

This is what a celebration is all about!

Kaylee wasn't too excited about being the last row to get their yummy treat...

...but Thursday brings another birthday treat, so maybe the last on Wednesday will be the first on Thursday!
