This Thanksgiving was one of my favorites yet. A couple days before Thanksgiving Connor's class and Kinlee's preschool class had their Thanksgiving feasts. Connor's feast had everything from mashed potatoes to pumpkin pie. Kinlee's feast consisted of finger foods like Carmel Apple cookies (the treat she brought) to pie as well. I got to help with both feasts and had such a great time visiting with the kids and teachers and helping in any way that I could. The Wednesday before Thanksgiving we showed the movie Planes to the entire elementary school. The kids brought pillows and blankets and the PTA provided popcorn. It was a fun way to kick off the Thanksgiving holiday and to give the teachers a little break. I also got to visit Kadee's classroom and see all the cute things they had been working on for Thanksgiving. I loved the turkey in disguise she made and also the water color turkeys they hung on the wall. On Thursday we went with Rory's family and had a delicious dinner at the old institute building in Price. Rory and his mom killed one of the Turkey's we had been raising and cooked it especially for the dinner. It weighed over 36 lbs. and turned out delicious. I didn't like helping kill it, I thought it was sad, but Rory did it in the most humane way possible and didn't let it suffer. This is the 2nd year we have killed and eaten our own home grown turkey.

Saturday Kadee and I went to her best friend Jordan Shorts' baptism. It was such a great day and so special for Kadee to see her friend make such a great decision. Kadee is so excited for her own baptism and has even started going to achievement days.
