Harvest Festival

G's school celebrated the Harvest Festival on Friday with a beautiful service at a church right around the corner from KS. The Harvest Festival is an annual religious celebration of thanks which occurs around the time of the main harvest. Our English settlers brought the tradition over to the states with the celebration of Thanksgiving.

Here is his class: (you can spot G just to the right of the tall blond-haired little boy in the middle of the back row)



The timing of this celebration of abundance is quite ironic, wouldn't you say?
