lantern walk

this week we celebrated martinmas by holding a small lantern walk at our new playschool location. although we had a few stumbles, lights that went out too soon and it wasn't quite dusk when we started out it was still lovely and nourishing the way only a lantern walk can be. the children and I are still humming our songs from the past few weeks as the play becomes centered around lanterns, fire and walking out to the crabapple tree where the walk to place to look for lost lanterns, lost mittens and papa footprints. instead we found half eaten deer apples (almost more exciting!)

bread day}

{this week on a rainy day}

we polished our apples

we made apple butter

we built forts

we chased chickens in mud puddles

we found secret stars

celebrating micha-el}

I'll be a knight for Michael, too,

And polish my crown to a golden hue.

Ask the gnomes the iron to mine,

Iron from the stars, from the earth, so fine,

To bring to the blacksmith, who with his might

Will make me a sword, so strong, so bright.

apple time!

many of our apples were lost to the winds of hurricane irene but a few did survive. this week at school we set about to pick the best ones and bring the not so good ones as a special treat for the chickens.
everyones bellies were full!
