"We do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors...we borrow it from our children."
~ Native American Proverb
The boys hosted their 2nd annual Earth Day party last week. We went with a "Lorax" theme because Max has been obsessed with the book since they read it at school this past month. I figured it tied in with Earth Day nicely.
We also made "litter bugs" at the party. The boys and I collected trash over the past few weeks to use for the project.
We sanitized everything first :)
The kids were so creative!
These chocolate mustaches were the biggest hit with the kids, though.
Fletch was at the party too!
Lettuce Turnip the Beet.

| They got outside for some fresh air too since the rain held off! |
Each of the kids left with a packet of seeds.
The boys and I also planted a tree together a few days ago. Just a tiny little cedar tree. I figure if we cut down one at Christmastime the least we could do is plant another. Once it get's bigger we'll decide where to transplant it.
I love to see the littles doing their part to make the earth a better place.
