Thanksgiving Countdown

 It's that time again! We love our holiday countdowns. They are getting harder to do as the older kids are growing up because they are so busy with school and other things, but I am determined to keep the tradition alive as long as I can!
Our Thanksgiving Countdown started last Thursday. So far, the  kids have made turkey masks, paper bag tepee's turkey handprints, they wrote notes to their teachers and gave their teachers some cookies, we had a special FHE on The Turkey with the Terrible Temper, and they colored turkey's by number. Their little projects have all turned out really cute and we are having fun getting ready for Thanksgiving. Adam and Tessa have been so good about writing in our family Thankful Journal. I love opening it to see what they have written. And our Tom the Turkey is getting more and more feathers each week. We'll do his big reveal for the year next week.
