Lenape Village


For school I had to do 1 out of 12 projects for school! The one i did was to make a Lenape Village! I did it with my dad. We worked really hard on it!!!! We used real dirt, paint, and some stuff from the Dollar store. We had an awesome time making it. Leave a comment to tell me if you like it. We hope you do!:)

Fact: The children worked too! Girls would help their mother in the field. Boys would be given small bows and arrows to hunt and fish!

TIP: click image to see the village even better!:)

Wow Karlie! Your project is awesome! It looks so real, especially since you used real dirt. I'm sure you will get an excellent grade for it. I'm so proud of you (and your Dad too!)
Love, Mom-Mom

Loved your Lenape village, Karlie.
I hope you're not getting too many projects. Brian has been having so many projects in 8th grade, one after another, You did such a good job, maybe I should have you come over and help him out (smile).
Well take care and enjoy your day. keep up the good work. Love, Aunt Vicki

Hi Karlie-
Your mom and I were friends when we were your age. We did just about everything together! I've read through your blog and I am enjoying getting to know you and your sisters. I really love seeing how great of a mom my old friend Val has become.
Your Lenape Village is awesome, and I think you did an incredible job on that Halloween Coloring that you did. It definitely deserved 1st prize.
I have 2 little girls. Charlotte is 5 and Lila is almost 4. They love their Webkinz, too. I help take care of their Webkinz online. They like going on the Gem Hunts, the Wishing Well, the Wheel of Wow and the Magical Forest. Lila, the 4 year old, gets very frustrated if she doesn't catch the seed in the bucket when she plays Pachinko.
You have a super-special mommy who had a heart of gold when she was a little girl. It looks like she passed that on to her little girls, too.

p.s.- MayfairBob is my husband- I didn't realize I was in his account.
