Pre-Thanksgiving fun

Our last few weeks have been leading up to Friday's big day, our flight to Montana to visit the Roberts.

Cora had a countdown chart going, and could hardly keep from talking about our trip.

After Stace got off work, we headed into the Burbank airport. More on our trip later.

On Thursday, Cora's school had a half-day, which was mainly her Thanksgiving party.

Here, she's eating her feast, which included real butter the children churned from cream.

Before eating, the kids each recited a letter of the word "Thanksgiving" to tell the story of the Pilgrims and Indians.
Then, they said what they were thankful for. You can hear Cora's offering at the end.

After their meal, the children sang their Thanksgiving songs; you can see one of them below. Cora sang loudly, and clearly enjoys performing.

Sue and I borrowed Cora and Sophia's pilgrim bonnets.
