What are you thankful for?

We cut apples, onions, and celery...added to butter, and mmmmm...

These are our "turkeys"....First we rinsed them and got the 'guts' out...then we stuffed, seasoned, and basted them...then we cut. Yes....for those who see they are upside down....we did that to see if the breast meat would be 'oh so yummier', and it was.

Yeah....it's done!

What are you thankful for? We started with...

Bryan: Bryan :)....

Olivia: My Fishtank, Turkey, Anna, you, Jence, (and she started naming everything she could see.

Jence: Olivia, Quincy, Anna, Bryan, lightening McQueen car, lightening McQueen camera, Lightening McQueen computer,

Quincy and Anna just smile...

Annie: That I have the best job in the world, and I get to see all my favorite kids everyday!

Seriously....I am not just saying that! :)

We only had 5 today...Connor went skiing (hopefully you found snow!) It was a nice little pre- Thanksgiving meal.

Serving up the chow.....Quincy's favorite is the cranberry sauce. He wanted more but I told him he had to eat some turkey and potatos.She cracks me up all the time you know....A very posed picture...too bad her pinky finger isn't sticking up...it almost is...That look from her is just priceless....I cannot stop laughing...

T is for Turkey Day!

Happy Thanksgiving! We made a little feast. The kids helped with the turkey...a little. They got to see the giblets and feel the turkey inside and out. We stuffed it and put it in the oven. The kids were in charge of checking the little red timer stuck in the turkey. They were soooooo excited when it had popped up! We also made fresh beans, fresh cranberry sauce, and had canned mandarine oranges. We ran out of time for the potatos. They didn't notice.
The cranberry sauce was their favorite!......oh, I mean the sparkeling cider. We did cheers!

I am so thankful for all the beautiful children I get to spend time with during the day. I have the best group of children and their families.
Thank you so much! I hope you all had a Yummy and Thankful Thanksgiving.
