Thanksgiving Day & Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving Day & Thanksgiving

For a lot of people Thanksgiving Day is having a party, football games, family reunions, etc... The first thanksgiving wasn’t a party nor a holiday, but a simply gathering. Following the mayflower’s arrival at Plymouth Rock on December 11^th, 1620, the Pilgrims suffered the loss of 46 of their original 102 colonists. 91 Indians helped the Pilgrims survive the winter, lasting three days the pilgrims and the Indians united in a thanksgiving observance. There are many traditions that their own meaning of thanks giving. Some say it an expression of gratitude, submissions of the local natives, a council’s recognition of its community, the defeat over the British, resulting in a collection of our nation’s traditions and values.

I’m thankful for…
