Thankful Turkey

Every year for the whole month of November we have a "Thankful Turkey" hanging up in our house. It's tradition. Basically we hang a turkey up and add feathers to it that say what we are thankful for. It is a simple thing to do but it has a big impact. I don't even make it cutesy. I just use a coloring page template and cut feathers out of paper. That is it!   

This is the turkey we use every year. But there are tons of free templates out there. Or you could draw your own if you are so inclined!

Hang that bad boy up with scotch tape- or something cuter. HA!

The feathers and a marker. That is about it! I cut the feathers out free hand but there are lots of templates too. They can be printed on colored paper and cut out and bingo bango they are done.

We always end up with some of the most ridiculous things on there. The kids put up farts, candy and minecraft. Mostly we end up with really sweet things though. I need to figure out a way to keep this feeling all year long. The feelings of gratitude are awesome!  

Thanksgiving Round Up

Now that Halloween is over I want to skip straight to Christmas! I am trying to keep a focus on Thanksgiving though. Poor Thanksgiving kind of gets skipped every year, right? It should be a way bigger deal! A whole holiday based on being thankful for you blessings? That sounds like a good time to me! I blame retail stores. They want you in a Christmas frame of mind so you buy more stuff. True story. Anywho..... I did a little Thanksgiving free printable round-up. There are tons more out there too. Lets all decorate for Thanksgiving and give it its proper due! And do it for FREE!!

My niece created this one. She is a babe!

This is a cool thanksgiving subway Art printable

Another cool subway art printable! There is also a cute bunting printable through that link.

Both of these come from here. I love those round ones! You could make cupcake toppers, cut them out and tie them around napkins as napkin rings or make them stickers to put on leftovers! The maze printable is genius! Kids and adults alike would enjoy those while they wait for dinner.

You can get a whole kit of thanksgiving stuff here!
