The kindergarten classes at Lakeside Elementary had a "Thanksgiving Feast"---Chick-fil-a chicken nuggets, grapes, popcorn, carrots, cheese, and pumpkin bread. (I think calling it a "Thanksgiving Feast" is a bit of a stretch.) Anyway, they put on a little musical performance for the parents and were able to show of the extremely cool "Pilgrim" outfits they made. Very nice hat and vest Reg! Jenna was pretty tired, so as you can tell from the first picture, she didn't really enjoy the festivities. Gotta love 2 year olds! :)
One of the things that Reagan was really excited about was that she was going to be able to sit by whoever she wanted to for lunch (plus the fact that she didn't bring her lunch kind of excited her too). Usually the kids sit down in the lunch room according to how they lined up in the class room. So the picture below is of Reagan with one of her best friends, Fatima. Her family just moved to Coppell from India. They are such a nice family. Reagan says that Fatima is sooo funny! She is always "cracking" Reagan up!
Of course, Jenna wanted to try on Reagan's very cool pilgrim hat. I think she looks very authentic. lol!
The girls were excited to take some pictures before we headed off to church yesterday.
Ian spoke on tithing. It seemed like everyone enjoyed his talk. But we all know that he is an excellent speaker. So it comes as no surprise. Reagan gave the prayer in Primary the same day. A little (or shall I say a big pregnant) birdy told me that she did so well. She said that Reg was very confident and didn't need any help. I think that she is enjoying the ward a bit more now.
The next picture is of Ian cutting up our Thanksgiving turkey. It was so delicious! Everything was delicious! It was so wonderful to have my parents come up and spend Thanksgiving with us. The girls had a blast with their Mama and Papa. They played together, ran around together, and even baked together. Jenna is still having withdrawls but we are working through it.
All in all, it was a great Thanksgiving. Every year we discuss what we are especially greatful for. I think that mine is always the same...Family. I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful family, both those that are near and far. But this year I am especially greatful for Ian. He is such a good man. He is a loving father and husband. And he works very hard to provide for us. When he has free time, he doesn't hang out with other guys. He spends every free moment with the girls and me. I know that he loves us very much. Not everyone has such a good man in their lives. And so I am especially thankful for Ian. We love you Hun!
