Thankful Tree & Our Hero

I thought I would share how I made our thankful tree this year.  In the past we have used real branches and tied paper leaves to them.  This year I decided to make it simpler to encourage the kids to add leaves on their own.  After cutting out the tree, I just taped it to the fridge and set out a bowl of leaves that I cut out on the counter. The kids can just write things on the leaves and add them whenever they think about it. Not as cute but super easy, and it's a great way to remember all the things we have to be thankful for!

So far, we are thankful for...

Also, when I was cleaning out some things today I found this page in the back of Griffin's workbook from the summer, and I thought it was so sweet.  His question for his hero is, "What do you do in heaven?"
