Thanksgiving Fun

Last night I had my grandchildren over, and we had a little bit of Thanksgiving fun. First I told them the story of the Pilgrims and the Native Americans. Then we made Native American costumes, made some pumpkin pie, and had a "finger-food" Pilgrim dinner (roast chicken, various baked root vegetables and corn-on-the-cob. While we were waiting for dinner to get done, we told what we were thankful for as we ate corn nuts. Here are some of the pictures from the evenings fun.
