America the Beautiful

It strikes me how amazing our country is as I upload some America the Beautiful pictures from our Workshop on Thursday as I am in Atlanta, Georgia!  What a vast and  beautifully diverse land we call home!

For those of you worried that I am working on "vacation"...
I am actually waiting for my son, Graham, to get home
from his job as a structural engineer!
I am soooo proud of him! 

 And I am not a good waiter so I am blogging....

We had 15  awesome volunteers help all 3 classes of K Kids  illustrate the pages to
"America The Beautiful".  Wow!  What messy, creative fun!

These first 3 are actually from Wednesday as
we began our enrichment day with a
little sneak peek at
USA projects....

Here they come!!!!

Oh Beautiful for spacious skies....

for amber waves of grain...

for purple mountains majesty...

above the fruited plains...

America, America

God shed his grace on thee...

 And crown thy good...

With brotherhood

From sea to shining sea!

These lovely books will be sent home next week!

Thanks to all who helped make this day possible!
