thanksgiving!

both of the kids had thanksgiving feasts at school this year, so that last friday before break, i was running back and forth between the schools. jj needed to bring in stuffing, and ellie was bringing the turkey slices.

ellie's feast was so cute. each kindergarten class did turkey slices, pumpkin pie, cornbread, vegetables and fruit salad. they each were dressed as either a pilgrim or indian. then all the classes ate together at the feast. it was adorable to see the kiddos in the costumes.

jj's feast was pretty awesome too. they focused on food rather than the costumes. they had roasted turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, rolls, cranberry sauce, veggie tray and pumpkin pie. a very traditional feast. each grade level had their feast together. before their feast, the 3rd graders did their native american indian presentations. jj did a great job on his! it was so nice to be able to be there for both of their events.

i love that each of the kids in their classes already know me by name and are so happy to see me. it makes my day when they go out of their way to say hi!
