On Thursday we got to enjoy the first grade Thanksgiving show "The ABCs of the First Thanksgiving". That's the letter M on the boys head and he had to read two sentences that were something like: M IS FOR MANY. BY SUMMER THE PILGRIMS HAD BUILT MANY HOUSES. THE GREW MANY HEALTH VEGETABLES IN THEIR GARDENS. Too cute. And, that's his desk right in front of him with the feet of Wally (the BoSox mascot) sticking up in the air. His teacher is a Sox fan and the group with the best behavior/perormance for the morning gets Wally for the afternoon. Kind of like an immunity idol on "Survivor", I guess.
After the show we enjoyed (I think) turkey lunch in the cafeteria. He sure loved showing us how the place runs. It wasn't too wild or noisy, but it did remind me of prison: no knives, food on beat up "teal" colored plastic trays, and little gangs everywhere. They had a teepee set up in there as well as photo opportunities such as the one below:
If the Pilgrims had seen this when they landed at Plymouth they'd have turned around.

You're right. They would have turned around...
