Be Thankful

I have been thinking a lot about how Thanksgiving really doesn't get the promotion it deserves. It gets lumped in with Christmas and I think that's wrong. Don't get me wrong Christmas will always be my favorite but Thanksgiving is great holiday too. So I have been trying personally give Thanksgiving it's own time. Usually as soon as it starts getting cold I bust out the Christmas movies and CDs but I am trying to hold back ...I also have been hitting the craft stores for decorations and crafts to do with Will. And really there isn't a whole lot to choose from. I have,however, discovered a cool magazine "Family Fun" that has a lot of great holiday ideas. Check out the website familyfun.com. Working on some turkey crafts might help a little. I will post pics later. I did find a singing turkey in my attic that I bought forever ago that Will seems to love! Here is a pic....there is a piece of dried fruit in his mouth that Will fed him! LOL!


Last Sunday we went to a Thomas event at our local AC Moore. Will is all about choo-choos lately so I thought he would enjoy this. I didn't expect him to sit long but he actually did well. Unfortunately they were using paint pens and Sharpie's to color them which I thought was stupid. But he actually colored for about 5 mins or so which is progress. They also had snow you add on to your car ...I did his snow when we got home.
