Thanksgiving feast

Today was Isaac's Thanksgiving Feast at preschool. Daddy took the Jake and I got to stay at school with Isaac the whole time and help out! Leah's mommy stayed, too, and it is only through her forethought and kindness that I can bring you these pictures. I can't believe I forgot my camera.

Here's the whole gang at the start of school. They line up to enter their classroom for circle time. Isaac's in the orange turtleneck between his BFFs David and Leah.



After circle time we had to prepare the food for our preschool banquet, to which family and friends alike were invited. It was then that Ms. Jess and I learned we were actually quite necessary to the operation, as wielders of knives. Ms. Jess helped kiddos spread peanut butter in celery, while I cut the cheese (ha) and supervised the spearing of cheese slices with decorative rainbow toothpicks. Here Jess's daughter Leah is helping me while Isaac and his friend Evan pick grapes of the stem.



Later we played outside, indulging in a seriously muddy game of dinosaur chase. Then we came inside and worked out some more sillies to a CD.



Finally it was time for the families to join us. The kids performed some songs and poems for us and we ate our snack buffet, I mean Thanksgiving Feast.
