LITTLE'S THANKSGIVING FEAST

I told you all I had a short day yesterday, I left to go to Little's Thanksgiving program his class was doing. They were singing songs and reciting poems, finished off with a Thanksgiving feast. It was really good. The high light had to be one song they sang about eating turkey. They were singing they ate "a whole lot of turkey" only it sounded like "a-hole" - Me and my mom had to do a double take, like what did they just say? Lol, it was pretty funny.

Later I took him to Dollar Tree with me and I let him pick out one thing, of course he picked the gun. As we were leaving he told me it was the best day in whole life - because he had his party at school and because of his new gun. Wow, it doesn't take much for kids, does it?








After all the singing, it was time for feasting:


This cracked me up! For some reason Little has a hard time opening up things (i.e. he just gives up) so I happened to catch him handing his cookies across the table to this little girl so she could open them up for him.




Oh look, he eats just like his mom!




Boy, I wish he wasn't so camera shy!



Look who I caught at the teachers desk! It's my mom and Ollie!


One last thing about Little, last Friday we were in the car and the song Celebrate Christmas came on and he absolutely ROCKED OUT to it! I was afraid I was going to get hit by a flying arm while I was driving. So here is Celebrate Christmas for YOU to rock out to!

GOBBLE! GOBBLE!

Hello all! As Thanksgiving approaches I felt the need to do a little Thanksgiving Nail Art. I had a great idea while going through my son's backpack. He had done the old trace your hand and turn it into a turkey picture at school. I thought, hey, what if I tried to do my own little version of that. So below you will find my results. While I am happy with it, I am not just real pleased with my execution of my idea. First, I didn't really have the colors that I wanted to use, second turning my thumb nail into a turkey face was harder than I first imagined. However with a little imagination, you can see what I was going for.

The colors I used were (pinky to pointer finger) China Glaze - Cat's Eye, China Glaze - Indian Ocean, Sinful Colors - San Francisco, Maybeline - Raspberry Sorbet. Then I used my Nubar NAP in Black and made my nails into "feathers". For my thumb, the "turkey" face, I used Color Club - Orange Revenge to make the beak, and I totally forgot to see what color of red I used for the little waddle that hangs down over the beak. I then outlined them with the black nap. I made a dot for the eye and drew a little "eyelash" line. Last I added a jewel for the eye.

To me, with the colors I had, it came out more peacock than turkey ;) But overall I'm pleased with it.
