Thanksgiving Fun

Thanksgiving break is filled with many things from a great dinner to the beginning of Christmas cheer. This Thanksgiving break was filled with many different things than normal for me but also many traditional aspects as well.


Well, the first Saturday was a normal Saturday for my boyfriend and me. We watched the Ohio State game and then went to eat. Sunday was also another normal day with a twist. We went to church and then came home and watched the Dallas game. We then went to his mom’s house and made cute little penguins out of bowling pins.


I am over the missions at my church. Since the youth group was out of school for the week, the youth leaders and I had planned a little mission work for them to do. We all went to the Ronald McDonald House, at Cabell Huntington Hospital, and made food for all the families staying there. Then after we finished there, we went to the Operation Christmas Child and helped out there for a few hours.


I worked Tuesday and Wednesday. Tuesday night I went to see “New Moon” with my boyfriend. It was great. Wednesday evening, I made pumpkin rolls to take to Nathan’s (my boyfriend) family Thanksgivings. My mom made me take them because I am not a good cook and she’s teaching me how to do things. Anyway I made those and they were a hit by the way. Then I made a pumpkin pie for my family’s dinner.
Thursday was very hectic. First, we had to go to Nathan’s mom’s Thanksgiving dinner at one. Then we were to be at my house at three. Finally, we had to go to his dad’s Thanksgiving at six. We watched Dallas beat the Raiders. Then went back to my house and watched Christmas movies.


Friday I slept all day then went to dinner. We then came back to my house and watched more Christmas movies. Saturday was an adventure. Nathan’s dad took us all to the mall. Us all include Nathan, his brother, his sister, and myself. He wanted to get an idea of what we want for Christmas. Then he took us to Logan’s for lunch. After all of this we went back to Nathan’s house to relax. Little did I know I was getting a Christmas present. It was the most beautiful necklace I had ever received. Two heart intertwine and have diamonds through it.


Sunday was a Sunday. I went to church, ate, slept, went to church again, and then my dad took me to see “Blind Side”. So every Thanksgiving is different so cherish each one.
