Traditions are defined as the transmission of customs or beliefs from generation to generation. Our Thanksgiving traditions are created from memories and gatherings of people sharing their blessings.
When I was growing up, I remember that my mother cooked and baked for days preparing foods for Thanksgiving. I believe that I can still feel the warmth in our home and experience the wonderful smells coming from the kitchen. One of the Thanksgiving traditions our family observed was that everyone came to our house to eat. This included grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins and friends.

A grandparent can never have enough time with grandchildren. I treasure each moment with the ones that live around me and feel especially blessed when I get to have visits with my out of town grandchildren.
These camo cupcakes were a big hit at my grandson’s 4 year old birthday party.
Last week my 2 little grandsons from NC came to stay with me for 4 days. One of them has an August 1st birthday. He had his birthday party with friends and NC family before they came to visit. We wanted to have a little party with his WV family while he was here. He requested a camo birthday party because he loves camo! It was also birthday week for his Uncle David. I was having a kids cooking class with them the day before the party, so I decided we would make foods to take to the party. His 6 year old brother wanted to make camo cupcakes and they turned out so cute. Continue reading CAMO CUPCAKES CREATED IN KIDS COOKING CLASS→
