Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!  At the beginning of November, I got out the construction paper, stencils and scotch tape and created the above wall decoration.  Every week or so, the kids, Eric, and I would write things we were thankful for on feathers and attach them to the body of the turkey.  And it is a good thing, too.  It is freezing here this morning!

Here is the final product which we finished last night:

 I realize that it may be hard to read so here is the list (in no particular order) (as a fun holiday game, guess who said what)

Mommy
Daddy
Family Bike Rides
Video Games
Agnes
Dominic
Coffee and Danish
When the kids play and laugh together
The times Dad surprises us with DONUTS!!!
Lights
William
BaCoN
My family (and by this he meant all of his extended family, but we only had one marker and Molly needed to go to bed, so he didn't have time/patience to list everyone)
Peanut Butter Sandwiches
Spaghetti Night
Snuggle Time
Minnie Mouse Plate
Nana and L'Opa
Grandma and Grandpa
KU Basketball
All God's Blessings in my life
My Polar Express
Grapes
Yummy Yums (M&Ms)
Molly 
All of my friends

(That last one was from Dom, but I'd like to second that.  Most especially my sisters, Katie and Mitzi, and my friends Janelle, Alicia, Ann, and Julie who I can pick up the phone anytime and call.  I'm very grateful to have that especially in the coming six months.  Thank you!)

And then last, but absolutely not the least:


Our family has so much to be thankful for.  We hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
