Happy Thanksgiving

Lincoln had his first play date on Tuesday. I was babysitting for a neighbor in our ward (child not pictured) and I wanted to make sure that we had fun activities. I was REALLY nervous about having 2 kids. I decided to be a little crafty and after a couple of phone calls to Nelay, Sara and Cat I was able to figure out how to make these little candy turkeys and get ideas for what we should do all day.

I would like to say that Lincoln helped make these, but really he just helped eat the gum drops.







Lincoln and I really enjoyed coloring this turkey. Interestingly enough, I found the coloring to be surprisingly therapeutic.


Lincoln is still eating gum drops in this picture!

All in all I think it was a fun play date. We chased each other around the house, played cars, colored, went to the park, made cookies ( the pre-made, pre-shaped, frozen kind you just put on the pan), obviously the candy turkeys and coloring. I think it was a good day.
