Happy Early Thanksgiving

I love Thanksgiving - everything about it. I get so excited when it is time to make Thanksgiving themed crafts. Here are the kids turkeys. 

Joey did not want his picture taken with his turkey.  He also didn't want yellow hand-feathers or a gobblet part. I'm not sure if you can see too well in this picture, but he wrote the J and the Y in his name. Too cute.
Ryan was so excited about getting his picture taken that he wouldn't hold his turkey. It was stealing his spotlight. So Bekah was the helper and held it for him. Ryan had a *bit* more help than the other two... as evidenced by the placement of things and the ability to distinguish what the eyes are. He did do some mighty nice coloring by himself though.
Bekah is very excited about her turkey. The eyes are slightly below the beak and those pink circles are cheeks. Turkeys must have cheeks. 
This was a great craft as they are really into anything involving markers or a stapler. The older two did cut out some of the hands by themselves (with assistance) too. I'm so glad that they're into crafts. It's one of my favorite things!

(I'm having problems with blogger - hence my infrequent posts... I can't seem to upload pictures on my home computer. It tells me there's a server problem. No idea what's going on with that!)

What adorable pictures of the turkeys, and the kids too! They did a great job on them, whether assisted or unassisted. Very cute!
