Celebrating Our Veterans






Veterans Day was celebrated on November 11. This year, we decided to honor our veterans by telling their stories. We wanted to know what it was like to have served our country. We were curious about training, daily schedules, and friends. We wondered about war. Read the following posts to hear more about our interviews with our Veteran friends.

Pumpkin Bells Are Ringing!




October 31, 2011


Happy Halloween!


Enjoy this song about Halloween. For more songs about Halloween, visit the website




Pumpkin Bells
(to the tune of Jingle Bells)

Dashing through the streets in our costumes bright and gay

To each house we go laughing all the way

Halloween is here, making spirits bright

What fun it is to trick-or-treat

And sing pumpkin carols tonight!



Oh Pumpkin bells, Pumpkin bells

Ringing loud and clear

Oh what fun great pumpkin brings

When Halloween is here.



What are you hoping for in your Halloween basket? What is your favorite candy and why do you like it? What candy do you not like?
