Sorority House: Thanksgiving with JK Bears

Always fun to be able to peek in on Caroline's class at school. As soon as Caroline see me she instantly tackles me and gives me the type of hug you wish would never go away, but you know it will with time - so you hug back a little harder before letting go.

Her class celebrated Thanksgiving today - I know I feel like Halloween was yesterday and Christmas will be next week. But while Kristen is getting sun on some beautiful gulf coast beach reading her People magazines discussing with other mommies if they should ever return or not... so I was on.

As all good junior kindergarden classes are these days, they had stations for the party. Necklaces, headbands, cornbread pancakes with homemade butter, etc. Here is Caroline shaking up her homemade butter for the cornbread pankcakes - they were yummy!

Her traditional Native American attire was a class uniform today. Oh yea, for those of us who grew up saying "Indians" instead of "Native American" I fully understand the need for change, but hearing jk'ers say "Native Americans" 50 or so times during the hour party was a mouthfull and frankly exhausting.

The pumpkin pie station was a class favorite. Simple recipe: Add anything sugary you can find that looks like fall into a cupcake case, chill and eat.
