A Pinteresting Project: Our Thankful Turkey
7:15 AMHappy Thanksgiving all! Slightly belated, I know, but I've been super busy with my visiting sister and I finally snuck in a few early morning hours to try to catch up a bit.
I've been really excited about Thanksgiving this year because, to be quite honest, our family has a lot to be thankful for. Its been quite a roller coaster ride, and now that things are settled down and we are safe and happy, it was time to acknowledge all of the blessings that we have.
We have never really talked about things we are thankful for during Thanksgiving, which has always nagged me in the back of my mind. After this year, though, we had to change that as I was doing a terrible job teaching my kids the point of the holiday.
Enter our Thanksgiving Turkey, which was another Pinterest inspired craft. It is originally a Parents.com idea, and I'm super excited to show you our thankful turkey!

Cute! How big were the foam balls and where did you get them? I see they are expensive! thanks! I liked hearing about your ritual too - did people read others thanks or their own?
ReplyDeleteSorry for the late reply, I've been on a bit of a hiatus lately... life got so busy! I got the balls at WalMart, but it was a few years ago so I don't exactly remember the price. I do remember the sticker shock, though, so I guess we both were caught off guard at the price! We still do our turkey each year, and we pull a feather at random and make sure it isn't our own, then read them to everyone :) Its really a cute and fun tradition
