Thankful Feathers

Happy Thanksgiving!  As always, we have so very much to be thankful for.  A great marriage, wonderful jobs (all four of them!), beautiful healthy children, and a God who loves us all.  We are excited to spend some time with family over the holiday.  But in the meantime, Brenna did a school project where she had to decorate a "feather" to be placed in her school's turkey.  We chose to take a picture with everything she could think of that she was thankful for and decorate the feather with those pictures.  Turned out cute I think.  And a simple reminder maybe?  To be thankful for even the simple things in life.  :)

Starting from the top left and working right, then down...  She was thankful for God (a bible), her sister, her Daddy, PaPoo, her school, Barkley, her Mommy, Bailey, our car, our house, Bo (the cat), food (a corndog), her clothes, candy (haha!), flashlights (her idea!), her Leap Pad, and all her toys.

We turned it in to her school, then they placed all the feathers from all the students to make the big turkey (Brenna's is close to the bottom on the right).

They also had a Thanksgiving Feast that parents were invited to attend.  They were sooooo cute.  Brenna's class were the Pilgrims, another class were Indians, and the other were turkeys.  Haha!  They sung songs and sat at the prepared table together and had a great meal!

They even had the grown up tables decorated with doodling paper.  So fun!

Here's some video of the songs they sung...
























And then it was time to eat!  :-)

We both had a great time with her and her school.  Always impressed.  Hope everyone reading has a wonderful Thanksgiving and remembers to be thankful for all your blessings in life.  :)
