Thanksgiving Festivities

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Our Thanksgiving week started out with a feast at preschool. Each of the children from 3 different classrooms created a different dish to share at the feast. The children dressed up for the occasion also. As you can see, Dawson chose a pilgrim costume for the event.

Thanksgiving day was beautiful. Early in the afternoon, we got out the scooter and the tricycle and took some loops around the block. It was a great day for being outside!

After Thanksgiving, Grammy shared a new animal and book with Dawson. It's name is "Jingles" and it's voice activated. When you read the book that goes along with the toy, Jingles barks throughout the story. There are two books available so far and a movie soon. It's such a fun toy. Another amazing Hallmark creation! After we read the book, she sat down to draw a picture of Jingles. Not too bad!

Another Sketch

Another interesting sketch. Dawson brought this to me and told me this is a picture of me with her inside my belly! Then she told me she knows she was not in my belly but it's ok if she sketches it! Sketching, sketching, sketching is what we are into these days. Dawson is spending a lot of time drawing pictures and now writing words. As I'm cooking in the kitchen, I always hear a little voice saying...how do you spell this and how do you spell that! Very cute! Four has been so much fun! I can't wait until Christmas because this should be an exciting year!

Trick or Treat

Finally, a Halloween post....better late than never! This year, I had a few more people over for dinner before trick or treat and a lot less time taking pictures. I just enjoyed the night for a change!

Minnie Mouse loved running in her heels and I can't believe she had no problem doing that!

Our carved creations....

A better view of the heels! Her favorite part of this whole costume was the shoes!
