Importance Of Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving

This Thanksgiving is going to be extravagant. I love food it’s the best thing ever. Almost every year my family meets at my grandpas but this year I think we are going to my cousins. I’m excited for that because we are changing it up for once. I have a really big family so there is a lot of food for all of us to feast on. I am not the oldest out of all the kids, but I am close to being the oldest. I’m the third oldest so I feel pretty old. Thanksgiving to me means to be thankful for your loved ones and to help those who do not have loved ones. It’s important to let your family know how thankful you are for them because family is the most important thing. That is why we all get together and feast on a turkey.

We let the older people go first. Then we all dig in and it is completely silent because we all have our mouths stuffed with food, that we have been waiting for the entire year. Then if you want more food there will be leftovers after you get done eating. I usually always get leftovers because I love Thanksgiving food. Like I said before, I love me some food. After Thanksgiving is over, me and my mom go Black Friday shopping. We stand in lines and wait for the stores to open. We usually go to Target, HH Gregg, and Kohls. After we leave those stores we go to Hamilton Town Center to finish our shopping. It is always freezing when me and my mom are standing outside. We always have to wear hats and gloves because it is so cold. We don’t always buy a lot, but we have a lot of fun. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite times of the year. You get to spend time with family and eat lots of food. I love catching up with my family because you miss them so much throughout the year. Shopping is also fun to do with my mom. Overall, Thanksgiving is great and I always have a lot of fun over Thanksgiving

    Thanksgiving represents what it's like to be an American because on that day my family does something that only happens once a year.

    My Thanksgiving break was pretty good. On Thanksgiving, I went to Indiana to my cousins' house. It was a two-hour drive, so it wasn't that long.

Anyways, we had eaten all of the thanksgiving things you can possibly eat. I loved thanksgiving this year and I can't wait next year.…
