Thanksgiving Favorites

I'm finally getting my photo folders in order on my computer. I started looking through all of them, and awe....I love memories. Precious memories. The Lord has truly blessed us. You know when you look at your past pictures and think how fun that was, or how cute and little the kids were? I tell myself that I'm going to cherish each and every memory for now on- that is until the kids wake up and start fighting (ha).

Looking through our Thanksgiving photos, I picked a few of my favorite things that we have done in the past. I thought I would share them with you, because you all inspire me when I need it most!

These Mayflower Cupcakes were a big hit at the school.

We put Mayflower Ships on some of them and Fishes on the other cupcakes. The kids' eyes lit up when they saw them.

Noe made a Pilgrims Hat Centerpiece one year.

This might be my favorite centerpiece ever! He put felt around a potted plant and used cardboard for the rim of the hat.


Pilgrims Hat Cookies are scrumptious.
We also have made cookies like this with the same structure that looked like turkeys. They were bulkier and a little harder to eat though (Feel free to message me if you have questions on how to do these).

Awe...and the kids made these Turkey Placecards for all our family members.
They dipped their hands in brown paint and put on cardstock. They glued feathers, eyes and a beak onto the turkey.

Another Thanksgiving Placecard we did, but I couldn't find a picture of them that was great. They were eaten in the pictures. We used sugar ice cream cones and put M&M's and Runts inside of them. With icing, I piped all the guests names on top. So, it looked like a Cornucopia Namecard.
