2020 Week 24 Dr.Seuss, Letter Dd, Teens

.Although Sorcha lives just down the hill in Winona, 
 it's a pretty big deal when she and her sweet boyfriend come home! 
We cooked lasagna and ate so many cookies
 plus had a craft afternoon making these beauties!

They helped make these for the k kids... 
(candied) green eggs and ham!
