thankful

we had our fall frontier feast tonight. having a big thanksgiving party with local friends on saturday, but wanted to do something special today too. so we traveled to massachusetts and became samoset, miles standish, puritan woman, and oceanus hopkins.

we ate chicken, dried fruit, nuts, and corn (and of course mashed potatoes and gravy b/c it's just not thanksgiving without mashed potatoes and gravy).

we read a puritan prayer and talked about how much the native people helped the pilgrims.

halfway through dinner w remembered that miles standish had a mustache (in his pilgrim book he has a mustache) so i had to paint one on him.

so much to be thankful for.
