1st Grade Thanksgiving Feast 2015

Today I helped out with the 1st grader's Thanksgiving Feast.  There were quite a few parents there willing to help.  I got put in charge of the potatoes.  We ended up making about four huge bowls of potatoes that actually by the end got thrown away.  Oh well.  The kids made themselves hats, place-mats, and silverware holders. 

 Here is the gym all set up for their feast.

 This was Rachel's plate.  She had to have gluten free bread and cookies while everyone else got rolls and pumpkin pie.

 She found her place-mat.  The teachers then said they could actually sit wherever they wanted to so we moved her plate so she could sit next to her best friend.

 Rachel and her best friend Maurianna.  They are two peas in a pod.  They were talking more than eating until I told them they had to eat.

 Showing me her turkey she made.  These held the silverware and napkins.

Rachel and Madilanne (her cousin).  They both got to wear bonnets.  Rachel looks like she is storing food for winter because she shoved her piece of bread  in her mouth just before I took this picture.
