AOD #9

Last week my family celebrated Thanksgiving. I did not realize that celebration and appreciation was an art of democracy, but it definitely is important to show thanks and appreciation for what we have done. Thanksgiving is a perfect time for this. It is a time to appreciate what we have accomplished and all of the wonderful family we have in our lives. I had a magnificent time with my family this Thanksgiving. Everyone on my mom’s side of the family lives in this general area in Washington so we all get together for the holidays. Even though we all live up here we don’t necessarily see each other a whole lot, so holidays are a nice time to catch up on things and see everyone and just have a good time together.
