Feasting

This week has been the final push before Thanksgiving Break.  We have had conferences, assemblies, field trips, lots of classroom volunteering....and best of all some feasting.

(my daughter Emma is not actually in this picture...I had to crop her out because she was fiercely growling at her little sister for snatching one of her olives :)  By the way, did you know that the pilgrims had juice boxes and Oreo cookie constructed turkeys on the first Thanksgiving?

 

On to Hannah's classroom.  They were each handed three kernels of corn and told to place them in that tiny basket one-by-one.  As they dropped their corn in, they were to say 3 things that they were thankful for.  So sweet.

So now we have 10 long, luxurious days before us to do WHATEVER we want. I am so, so, so thankful for that!! I am hoping that their will be some sleeping in.  Also hoping that we can watch this movie for the one billionth time (it has become the current favorite with the little people around here.)  And, if I am lucky- some crafting too.  I have a "Christmas Gifts To Make" list that is a mile long!
