Thanksgiving, every November 26th we celebrate it. We celebrate this holiday to give thanks for all the good things that happened to us over the past year. This all started back in 1620. The pilgrims left England to the New World, what we call America. During the summer of 1621 the pilgrims experienced a severe drought which threatened the corn crops. So they commissioned a day of fasting and prayer to please God so he would bring forth a bountiful harvest that coming harvest. God heard their prayers and it rained later that day, saving the crops.Later that year during harvest season the pilgrims organized a great feast to thank God for his favor. ( The rain that saved the crops.) And today we celebrate Thanksgiving by having a great meal with our families and thanking God for our blessings.
Nice job. I like how you told many details about the first Thanksgiving. Once again, nice blog post.
