Thankful Turkeys

The Dove kids came over today for a play date!  The boys showed the girls their bed and all the fun things in their room.  Aiden calls the closet part of his bed the "elevator" and each floor takes you to a different room in the house.  The kids brought toys up to the top bunk and loved hanging out up there.  They always have fun playing together!

Since it was raining outside, I thought it would be fun to do a craft.  We made turkeys out of paper plates and construction paper.  On the feathers, we wrote what the kids were thankful for.  Emily and I did most of the work while Clara colored on lots of sheets of paper and Ty cut up paper and tried to eat a marker.  Sadie and Aiden were somewhat helpful with the gluing and cutting out a few misshaped feathers.  After our craft, we had chicken noodle soup for lunch.  Braden and Mark both took naps, despite all the loud noises coming from their siblings.  We always enjoy spending time with their family.

Ty is thankful for UmiZoomi, Dadda, his bed, snacks, God, family, baby Mark and toys.  Aiden is thankful for Ty, church, nice teachers, flowers & trees, toys, baby Mark, Jesus and God is always with us.
