Happy Thanksgiving

We had a lot of fun celebrating Thanksgiving this year!  Starting with Halle's kindergarten Thanksgiving feast.  

(She's in the back corner, by the lady squatting.)


It was also pj day at school :)  Double fun!


Being a turkey like her treat!


Thanksgiving coloring pages at story time!


Eve and Halle both had their Thanksgiving luncheons at school on Friday the 16th.  Abigail and Cora were excited to pack lunches and go!


First was Halle's lunch!


Then Eve!


The girls had the whole week of Thanksgiving off of school, but Andrew had only Thursday and Friday (although he did surprise us and come home early on Wednesday).  We tried to do a Thanksgiving snack each day, with moderate success.  First was pilgrim hats, made with fudge stripe cookies and reese's peanut butter cups. 


Some people had more interest in the frosting...





On Tuesday we attempted cornucopias made from ice cream cones.



Wednesday we started baking for the big day!  Eve helped me make a quadruple batch of rolls!  We also made two pies and the jello.


On Thursday morning, after Andrew got up early for basketball and football, the girls put on a Thanksgiving show for us!  


And while watching the parade, we made turkey snacks!


Time for family games before dinner!


And finally, time to eat!  


We missed being with extended family this year, but it was also fun to do our own thing at home.  

And Seth squeezed into his turkey pants for the occasion! 


Gobble, gobble!  Turkey bottom!
