Friday, I was out of school and I got to stay home with the kids! Grace had completed her first craft of the day at 7:15 am. I had a feeling that Grace was going to want to craft all day so, I had brought home extra Thanksgiving crafts from school.
Still in pajamas and on to craft #2.
Grace took a break from her crafts and went outside to play and Carter was taking a nap. So, I took a few minutes and snapped some pics of our Thanksgiving decorations that I put out a few days ago.
Love this cute little turkey bell that my mom got me when we went shopping in Kilgore.
This turkey pilgrim sits on our kitchen window sill.
I added this banner that I made a couple of years ago to our mantle.
This year, I made a Give Thanks box. I covered a paper mache recipe box that I got from Hobby Lobby with scrapbook paper and added a few embellishments. Every night during the month of November when we eat dinner, we write down something that we are thankful for on an index card. I want to teach our kids gratefulness and hopefully this will help a little. Also, it will be fun to go back each year and read the cards.
We ate lunch and Grace was on to craft #3.
She made an indian headband and necklace.
She wasn't finished yet...#4! She made a teepee and canoe.
Carter was getting ready for Thanksgiving by practicing licking his lips. He found his tongue and I LOVE it! He has such a cute little tongue! Ha!
Saturday, my mom and I made Grace and Carter these cute turkey shirts. (Mom is still working on their eyes.)
I think I'm almost ready for Thanksgiving! Are you?
