Happy Thanksgiving!

Whew, I'm exhausted!! Today was our Thanksgiving Feast in Kindergarten. So all of my little ones donned their Pilgrim hats and Wampanoag headbands in honor of the first Thanksgiving--they looked so darn cute, if I do say so myself!




After a special Thanksgiving lunch (think..preparing Thanksgiving dinner for 125 kids + parents), the kids spent 2 hours rotating through the Kindergarten classes making various Thanksgiving-esque crafts. The kids had tons of fun..but I couldn't be more glad that it's over! :) It was a very fun day for the kids, but a very tiring day for the teachers!!





Derek is now DONE with his ER rotation, and I have a 1/2 day of work tomorrow. (Ugh..yes, we still have school the day before Turkey Day..the only thing that's worse than that is the fact that I will still be teaching on December 23rd aka the day before Christmas Eve..ridiculous!) Sooo we're packing our bags tonight (I'm a such a compulsive over-packer!), and then Derek will pick me up from work tomorrow afternoon so we can hit the road as soon as possible.


And just for the record, we are SO THANKFUL that we are able to go home to spend Thanksgiving with our families this year! Can't wait for all of the yummy food (especially my mom's hashbrown potatoes!) and all of the family time! :) Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
