Happy Monday, I hope you had a great weekend! One of our weekend events was participating in our school's garden/grounds cleanup, and I have to say it was one of the best things we've done as a family in recent memory! If your school or community has a cleanup coming up, participate! It was so fun to be part of a community/nature effort and have the kids helping out and running around outside for several hours!
