Thanksgiving Feast

Today was Esther's pre-school Thanksgiving feast. Several weeks ago when the information came out about this event, Casey asked Esther if he could be her guest for the feast. Of course she was very excited about that idea, and they'd both been looking forward to it.

In the last week, all 3 kids have been sick with a stomach bug that hit them pretty hard. Esther was sick over the weekend, but was feeling better last night and seemed like she would be ready to go to school for the feast today. Then at around 10 pm last night, it hit Casey.

Both Casey and Esther were extremely disappointed that he couldn't join in the festivities. Fortunately, my parents were babysitting today anyway since I had to work, so my Dad graciously agreed to take Casey's place.

When he arrived, the Native Americans greeted the Pilgrims by playing their drums. Then they did some activities, heard a story and of couse got to eat the feast! They both had a really good time and we're really thankful that he could go so that Esther could still have a guest at her feast.
