Anyway, November was full of things for Ryan at her school and things for all the kids at home and with family. I took the kids to watch Ryan in her class' Thanksgiving program. She was a turkey and her class sang a song about a turkey hiding from the farmer. She was so cute! Then, I had Thanksgiving lunch with her on another day and she and her class wore their Native American smocks and headbands that they had made in class. Well, I knew when Britt saw that, she'd want one of her own and I knew I'd had Bellamy one day that week so I hunted and gathered stuff so the girls couldake their own smocks and headbands. I didn't bother to make Hunt one (sorry buddy) because he wouldn't even sit still long enough for me to measure him so I knew it'd be mostly worthless. But the smocks turned out cute the girls had a good time, I hope!
The closer we got to Thanksgiving, I had the kids help me pick out and make a treat to serve on Thanksgiving day. They chose golden Oreo turkeys and helped me feather them with candy corn and sugar eyes. We had fun but they did use more "feathers" for eating than for fluffing the turkeys!
Finally we had Joe's birthday and enjoyed a Semiinole cake followed all too quickly by Thanksgiving day, first with my family and then with the Longfellow's. I got a couple shots of my wild turkeys and a picture of all the attending family members in Hosford. For such a big bunch, we seem to be dwindling in numbers. We gotta do better, Shuler family!!! November was definitely nonstop but I wouldn't know what to do if it were any different!!!
