Happy Early Turkey Day

The boys had their Thanksgiving program and dinner at school tonight. Daniel's class learned two songs for the program: "Jesus Loves Me" and "Hello, Mr. Turkey". I've got a video of them singing the second one. If it's hard to hear, the lyrics go like this:
Hello, Mr. Turkey, How are you?
Hello, Mr. Turkey, How are you?
With a gobble, gobble, gobble, and a waddle, waddle, waddle.
Hello, Mr. Turkey, How are you?

Daniel is WAY over to the left almost on the end, but he was way too fascinated by the audience & everyone singing around him to sing, much less to do the motions!



William's class learned three songs: the two listed above as well as "Little Pilgrim", which is to the tune of Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. Here are the lyrics:
Little Pilgrim dressed in grey on the first Thanksgiving Day.
Little Indian dressed in brown came to visit Plymouth Town.
They both came to eat & pray on that first Thanksgiving Day.

William is directly in the middle & he gets into the motions on the second round:



Here are a few snaps of them at dinner. Daniel is dressed as a turkey (that's a beak on his head!) and William is an Indian.
