A friend gave me the idea to take photos of the kids artwork so I am including two paintings. The first is Rachel's painting of a turkey and the second is Carson's red painting. His artwork tends to be more abstract and he likes to stick to one color. Rachel pressed him to tell her what he painted, "What is it Carson? Is it a house, a firetruck...". Carson replied, "Its a firetruck!" Rachel's response was, "Yesterday you told me it was a tree!".
We decided to have Thanksgiving dinner at a restaurant this year since we had a small crowd and a good restaurant nearby. It was delicious and so nice to have no dishes to clean up afterward! The first picture below was taken by Rachel, the second picture was taken by Carson. Not bad!
The kids each made a Thanksgiving hat at preschool. Rachel's is a pilgrim hat and Carson has a turkey on his head!
The Sunday after Thanksgiving Grandma and I took Rachel to see her first ballet, The Nutcracker. Hopefully it will provide some inspiration for her in her own ballet class. And it was fun for the girls to get all dressed up ("fancy", as Rachel would say).
More recently we took a trip to the Providence Children's Museum which the kids really enjoyed. The highlight for Carson was the construction section - he even got to ride his own steam roller! Rachel loves to play house and shop at the kids grocery store. And they both loved the water table.
