Thanksgiving seems so long ago now! We watched the parade in the morning (Cirque du Soleil wins for best float in my opinion), and worked on getting dinner ready. The turkey was actually done way earlier than we had planned and nobody had arrived but we managed to get all the other food ready in a decent amount of time and ate right when everyone got to our house. My voice wasn't working very well but "thankfully" I felt fine!
We spent all month (and every dinner) discussing what we were thankful for and added a feather to our turkey for each day (see picture below). I think we might have been short a couple days near the end there but it still served it's purpose-even when we forgot our feathers we still talked about thankfulness.
Feather color code- Owen-Red, Paige-Purple, Pat-Yellow, Kim-Orange
