Thanksgiving Week

On thanksgiving week I had many stuff going on. I had a soccer game with this school vs. Southgate and we the varsity team tied 3-3. The JV girls lost I don't remember by how much. I still had practice the next day and Wednesday we got the rest of the week off. I had a lot of hw to do. I had to finish a book for English called '"Night". For PBS I had to organize my notebook. For health I had to do a pamphlet about infectious diseases. On thanksgiving my mum made posole which was very good. My whole family came over and each brought something. It was really fun because we got to spend time as a family and we got to eat a lot . On Saturday I went to a carne asada with my friends and we had a lot of fun.

                                  Thanksgiving Day

         Thanksgiving Day is a day where we give thanks for the things we have. Thanksgiving is always on the 4th Thursday of November. This year Thanksgiving falls on November 26th.
Usually families gather up on this day and have a dinner. They usually eat turkey, stuffing, bread rolls, cornbread, mashed potatoes with gravy, sparkling cider, pumpkin pie etc. Each family celebrates a different way. The first Thanksgiving in the united states was in Plymoth Rock in Massachusetts in 1621. The pilgrims celebrated after harvest and surviving a long winter. Did you know that 91% of Americans eat turkey on thanksgiving day ? Thanksgiving day is a day where we show how thankful we are for the things we have.
