I Have the BEST Family Ever!










We have had so much fun in school the last few weeks! My mom and Mallory came and read a story about a gingerbread baby and then we all got to decorate the cutest gingerbread cookies and eat them! We had so much fun! Then since we were training for out Turkey Trot we had a mile race. The kids were so excited for the race, they were sure they were going to be able to beat my mom and Mallory! But Mallory came in first upsetting a lot of the boys! Me and my mom were not too far behind her putting up a good fight! The kids are always so dramatic during the mile run we always have a few in tears and a few lying in the path refusing to stand up because they think they will throw up blood! Haha I have come to the point where I just ran past them and tell them they can wait on the bench. They jump up excitedly and run to the bench to cheer everyone else on. They are SO dramatic! But all of the boys had crushes on Mallory and they kept staring at her and telling her that “their friend” thinks she’s hot! Haha it was a little disturbing but mostly cute! They can’t wait for them to come back and visit us again!

Today my dad came to talk to the kids about turkeys. Everyone LOVED him! They even commented on his nice shoes! Haha the things they notice! We had fun talking about the different boy or girl turkeys which I learned are called toms or hens. And only the boys gobble the girls just click! The best part was when he brought out the different samples the students were so excited it was as if they had never eaten turkey before! He then spoiled them by giving each of them a stuffed turkey toy, turkey pencils and pens! Obviously every student LOVED him and after he left they kept telling me how lucky I was that I had such a nice dad!
I am lucky for having such a nice family to come and hang out with me and my class! We love the visitors!!
