Our Little Pilgrim

Last week, Mike and I spent Monday afternoon at Chase's school for his class Thanksgiving feast. All of the parents gathered in the classroom while we waited for the kids to join us. After a few minutes, they slowly walked into the room, staring at all of us and wondering what in the world was going on (even though they had practiced this many times). Once they were all corralled in the classroom, Mrs. Yascur lined everyone up and got them ready to sing their Thanksgiving song to the parents.

It was so fun to see Chase at his first little "performance." I could tell he was looking for me and Mike, but he didn't see us at first. I waved at him to get his attention at which point he got the biggest, goofiest grin on his face. Then, instead of singing, Chase and Max spent the next few minutes giggling and hugging each other. It was completely and absolutely adorable.

After their "song," we all sat down for a Thanksgiving feast - preschool-style - complete with Chick-Fil-A chicken nuggets, macaroni and cheese, cookies and juice boxes. Yum!

What a great time we had spending the afternoon with Chase at his school. It's obvious he is doing well and Mrs. Yascur really enjoys having him in class. I'm sure he keeps Mrs. Yascur on her toes!

Here are a few pictures and a short video of Chase during the class "song."

Isn't it so festive?

Don't you just love preschool?

Isn't' that sweet?!

Chase has spotted us. Check out his big smile!

Aren't they adorable?

"Look, Max!" There's Mama and Daddy!"

Ok. Now check out how tall Chase is. Holy cow.

Let the hugging and giggling begin.

I just love it. So sweet!

Look at Chase hugging on Max. 

Doesn't Chase have the cutest grin?

I love my little Pilgrim!

Messy face and all...

And here are the videos broken into two parts (not sure why).
You'll see a lot of standing, smiling and giggling and a little bit of nose picking. Oh, boy!
Poor Mrs. Yascur. She tried so hard! It doesn't matter though. We loved it no matter what!





Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
