A Hilton for the hummingbirds...?

Ok, so cute story...

Along with being Scoutmaster, Allen also teaches the nursery (kids ages 18months - 3 years old) at church. His lesson yesterday was "I am thankful for trees, plants and animals" He thought it would be fun to make a nest, and talk about the animals that use trees for homes and all that good stuff.
Really cute.
Anyway, our kids were actually quite jealous at seeing this fun experiment not include them. Spenc and Cam helped collect the sticks with the disclaimer of "you need to make one with us when we get home from church". So, that was the deal. After dinner, this is what I found...

And this is was the outcome of this messy, but super fun project...
