Thanksgiving Feast 2007
Friday was our Harvest Feast at work(which is also where Easton goes to school). It is very busy morning trying to set things up plus do your regular routines with the kids. It was really nice that we are able to get extra chairs and tables from the Island. I like the look of the white chairs. Jen was able to decortate some while Char and I watched the kids outside. As you can see each class has their own feast in their own classroom. 
Each class makes something for the feast. Our class and the other 2yr/3yr(which is Easton's class) class made homemade butter. It tasted really good. Then the 3yr/4yr classes made homemade applesauce. It was very delicous!!!! Then one of the preK classes made homemade cranberry relish and the other preK made pies. Everything tasted great. We had turkey of course and mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans, stuffing, and all of the things listed above.
We had about 25 parents, grandparents, and aunts, make it to the party for our class alone. At this age it is really hard to do anything with them when the parents come, because it is all about mommy or daddy or whoever came to see them. It is especially hard when parents have to leave to go back to work, which most of them had to do. We had a song to sing while wearing the hats they made but most of them wouldn't let go of mommy or daddy. Then we eat. It is so nice for the children to have that timewith their family and they do really enjoy it. Easton really enjoyed it too. He wouldn't even put down his fork for a picture.
I tried to get over to Easton's class to eat with him after our class was all set(one perk of working where your child goes to school). I didn't get a chance to take many pictures because we were so busy. I did take a couple before it started and a couple with Easton.
It is a lot to get ready for while doing your regular duties with the kids, but it is definitly worth the extra work. And a great chance to get to know the families a little more.

Great pics Ruth. Thanks for sharing. Looks like it went really well. I like the white chairs too, they look really nice. It is funny, since I have been there to the school it is easier to picture it. Thank you for sharing.
