The 6th Annual PrairieWood Thanksgiving feast...

Whelp...we are exhausted!  We have spent the entire week preparing food, cleaning the center, and practicing our party social skills.  And today we showed off all our hard work.  Guests included students and staff from Prairie and Kirkwood, those that are supportive of our program and those students who may one day be attending PrairieWood.  Each student spent two days cooking items that were served at today's luncheon.  Ask your PrairieWood student about their favorite part of the day!  We took some time this afternoon to reflect on our week of preparations and here is what we have to share...

"During our Thanksgiving, I learned to Grocery Shop for Thanksgiving food." Sarah

"During our Thanksgiving , I enjoyed talking with my friends." Nolan

"During our Thanksgiving , I was challenged by keeping my sleeves up while cooking" Andrea

"My favorite part of our Thanksgiving was making the stuffing." Kaitlyn

"During our Thanksgiving, I learned to make pumpkin pie." Parker

"My favorite part of our Thanksgiving was the people." Kyle

I could not be prouder of each and every one of our students today.  They worked so hard to clean and prepare the food, and were such great hosts to our guests.   They represented PrairieWood well!!!

Enjoy the pictures from our week of preparations and our party today...
