What is Thanksgiving? Do you know where the holiday came from? Do you know some of the myths of thanksgiving?
For me Thanksgiving is about remembering how we got to where we are. Remembering those who came before us to help us get where we are. It is a chance to get together with family and friends and think about our history as well as look to the future. And honestly, for me, it's also a little bit about football. Eating and watching football has always been a big part of Thanksgiving in my family. We have a football tradition, every year we play the "Turkey Bowl". The Turkey Bowl is a 1 hour touch-football game where we split the family into 2 teams and play before we eat. It's all in fun, and it works up an appetite.
What does Thanksgiving mean to you? Why do you think we celebrate it? How do you celebrate it? What are your family's traditions?
