A Taste of Thanksgiving

What a fun way to spend a day! The kids cooked up a storm this morning, making turkey and ham roll ups, stuffing, a vegetable tray, and homemade butter. Joseph and his mom contributed a 'turkey' made with fruit, which was a big hit. A fun,chocolately surprise for dessert was brought by Evan and his mom to round out our 'Taste of Thanksgiving'.
The kids greeted their families wearing a pilgrim hat or native american head band with feathers. Their big, plump paper turkeys were in the hallway so everyone could see the things that they were thankful for written on the feathers.
We all enjoyed the feast before the kids' production of "The Little Brown Turkey". They couldn't have been more cute! They each are becoming more comfortable in a larger group, speaking up so every one can hear them.
I think I need a rest from this Thanksgiving feast before I start preparing my own this week!
