Making Butter and Upcoming Events

Little House in the Big Woods:  Making Butter and trying a taste of the buttermilk!  It was a BIG hit and most of the kids preferred it over store bought butter... even though it required a whole lot of shaking to get it made!

 My phone ran out of storage space, but hopefully I have a few pictures to add of our visit by Mrs. Covington to demonstrate the thimble and sewing techniques used in the story.... check back soon :)
