For my Thanksgiving this year, my family and I drove down to Utah. We first stayed at our grandparents' house, but then our cousins came up. So, while they slept at our grandparents' house, we went to the Pope house. The Pope house is the house of my uncle's parents, and they don't live there all the time. Anyway, there are six bedrooms there, and so we all could have had our own room, but we slept together downstairs. On Thanksgiving morning, we went to Mimi and Papa's house (that's what we call Grammy and Grampa), and helped with the meal. We always have our Thanksgiving dinner early around 2:00, so it's like a lunch. Then we have a small supper, usually eggs and toast.
Our dinner was sooooo good! This year, with the turkey, we also had ham! I love ham, by the way. Also we had mashed potatoes, and gravy, and yams, and corn, and peas, and stuffing, and butterhorns, and fruit salad, and juice! I loved this year's meal. After that, we had pie. And it was directly after it! We didn't even wait till we weren't full anymore! We just ate dessert! Then we played some games with our cousins.
So then we went back to the Pope house, and we slept. This morning, I went with my mom to help my great grandparents move to an assisted living place. I think it was pretty nice to see that they're going somewhere safe. I played some songs on the piano for them, and they loved it. They absolutely love listening to the piano, so I absolutely love playing it for them.
Well, that's been our Thanksgiving break so far. What was yours like?
Since Emma shared a scripture about Thanksgiving, I will as well. Philippians 4:6 says; Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. So just don't be worried about anything, but let God know about what you need, and he will help you.
