On November 26th, this year people all over the United States people were celebrating Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is about giving thanks for everything you have in your life. You are comming together with Family and have a big dinnIMG_4786er with everybody. And this year I got to be a part of this! I was really exited for Thanksgiving but actually had no clou what would happen. My Familie and me went to Rockford Illinos, which is right next to Chicago, because the dad of my dad lifes there. We went there Tuesday, so we actually where there an one 0’clock in the night, but so we got to sleep in the next morning. Then on Wednesday we just had time to hang out and started some stuff for the dinner the next day. I also got to meet the one brother of my dad and a part of his Family, that life close to Rockford. His other broter and his Familie couldn’t come but I allready met them, because they life really close to us.                                                                                                                                               Then the next day it was Thanksgiving. After we got up in the morning we went to Club, what was kind of like a country club. There u could get something to drink, play games or just hang out and talk to other people. After that we went home to prepare the dinner. We made Turkey, what really has to be a part of this dinner, then mashed potatos with gravy, mashed potatos with chees and bacon on top. And alot of other really good food. Then after we ate all this stuff we also had an desert what was chocolate pie. U can also see the cocolate pie in the picture on the top.       After all this food, it was a little bit like Christmas where u just eat to much but it is so good that u can’t stop and at the end you are so full and just want to sleep, we made a break and just hang out.                                                                                        Then there is also the traditional Black Friday shopping! Where u get the best Sales in a stores, you would ever get all over the year. There are videos of people fighting in stores for special things they want. So now the Americans decided to also open their shops on the thursday, so it is actually the day of Thanksgiving, what automaticly means that people have to work on holidays. The normal actuall tradition is that you get up really early in the morning to wait infront of the store and the go shopping. Not on Thursday night, because we had the plan to go back on Friday earlier to don’t get into to much traffic. So we decided to also go shopping on Thursday night, just to have more time. The shopping was actually fun and you got some really really good deals.                                                                             After this we returnt back home ands go to bed. Then the next day my family got out to shop again but I decided to stay in my bed and sleep, because I allready spend alot of money the day before and I was really tired. After they got back we packed up the car and went home.
