Thanksgiving Month Thanks

Our Thankful Turkey Feather tradition is easily in my top 5 favorite holiday traditions (though we keep up the feathering all the way through November, rather than stopping at Thanksgiving, which was especially nice since this year Thanksgiving was so early).  This year it was fun to have Callie writing a lot of the feathers each evening, complete with her own creative spellings.  It's so fun to see how these lists evolve over time, so I thought I'd give a quick link back to the past years versions: 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014.
