I had a Thanksgiving party and a lot of my friends and family came over. We socialized and played games at the party. I hope I get to do it again this year because it was fun. I loved it when we played cards. Everyone is pretty competitive in my family so I didn’t win but, my cousin won. Earlier in Thanksgiving break, I went shopping. I got lots of fall clothes and I still have them. I decorated my room but I took down the decorations because it is winter now.I am planning to put them back up. After that, I pretty much just stayed home. I took so many naps and I just got out of my room to go to the restroom or eat. I looked like a bird in it’s nest because I barely got out of my room. I learned the real reason of Thanksgiving last year. I used to think it was just about pilgrims and turkey. I thought it was all about fall, dark colors, food, and getting together. But, I found out last year that it was about giving thanks to the Lord. I thank the Lord every night for everything He has done in my life.

    My family and I do not celebrate turkey day (Thanksgiving), however, we do occasionally eat a turkey dinner. It is hard to choose just one item from this dinner because I like combining the flavors of the cranberries, mashed potatoes, and stuffing to create a sweet and savory flavor, but if I had to choose one of the items that the meal absolutely could not go without it would be the delicious stuffing topped with turkey gravy (yes actual gravy not brown sauce.). There was once a close elderly friend of mine who had parkinson's disease, due to his disease his hands shook uncontrollably and it was very hard for him to work on his projects. He invited my family and me over to help him put together a puppet show stand.…

    In order to focus on my heart dimension, I was able to spend time with my family for the Thanksgiving holiday. Whether it was preparing/eating food, watching football, or just catching up on what had been happening in their lives, it was the first Thanksgiving I was able to celebrate with my family in three years. I was, of course, extremely happy and excited that I would be able to spend the holiday with my family as I had not been able to do so in several years. However, when planning travel and other things regarding the holiday, I was also bothered by how long it had been since I spent Thanksgiving with my family. I had not realized before that it had been several years since I was able to see my family on Thanksgiving.…
