I'm thankful for turkey bums!

So on our Thankful jars we were thankful for Turkeys one day and had to do a turkey craft! I am a SUPER good artist and since daddy was working late I took it upon myself to create our turkeys. I was feelin' pretty good until Max said they looked like Turkey bums! At any rate the kids had a great time and a new tradition was created! We wrote what we were thankful for on the feathers and then anyone that came into our home wrote what they were thankful for on a feather and added it to the wall. I don't have a picture of the complete wall yet but it was great! The wall was full of "thankful" feathers from family and friends. I loved seeing what everyone said. There was health, laughter, trials, food, fun, family, friends, spouses, children and even quantem physics (SP?)! The kids had the best time and LOVED the turkeys! (Even if they did look a little like a bum!)

Ha ha ha...turkey bums! What's that? You want to be in charge of the thankful jar next time? That's what I thought.
I found a recording of Brandon's mission farewell in my parents' home videos. You're kids would love it. So vintage Brandon. :) I have to figure out how to get it on a disk or video tape. It's on an 8mm tape right now. I hate having to convert old technology to new technology. BLAH!

All I can say is that you are an AWESOME mom! What cute turkeys and what a fun tradition to start. We might have to steal that one!
