The next morning my new family,and I get ready to celebrate our first holiday together,and our first Thanksgiving together. We help Ben,and Carly decorate the house. After we are done decorating we all go out into the living room,and sit down. Ben tells us the story of the first Thanksgiving.
Ben exclaims to us,"When the pilgrims first came to America they had to start learning how to fish,and grow food. They also had to learn how to build their own homes. The Indians helped the pilgrims out a lot,and they had a big feast.
The pilgrims were so grateful to the Indians for all of their help,so they invited the Indians to join in on the feast. That is how the first Thanksgiving was celebrated,and today it has become a national holiday."
We respond back to Ben,"that was a very good story Pa."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
After Pa finshes telling us the story of Thanksgiving we all sit down to a delicious meal of Turkey,mashed potatoes,and gravy,green bean casserole,and we have pumpkin pie for dessert with whipped cream on top. We all go around the table,and say what we are Thankful for.
We all share with our family what we are thankful for this Thanksgiving. Adam is part of our Thanksgiving celebration because he is in jail,and spending time in jail for a crime that he committed.
After dinner it's bedtime. We all go upstairs to our bedrooms,and we put our pajamas on. We all lay down in our beds,and we fall asleep for the night. Ben,and his wife go to bed for the night to,and we all don't wake up until the next morning.
