Thankful for Thanksgiving

My family gathered in Troy, Ohio for our Thanksgiving celebration on Thursday. I don’t think I have ever seen so much food! After eating dinner, we played football. It was too cold for us to stay outside for long, but at least I got a chance to win the game again. Bragging rights for the car ride home.

We went to the Christmas tree farm on Saturday to cut down our unique tree. I’ve shared my family’s tradition to choose the imperfect tree. This year was fun because we had plenty of time to enjoy the farm and look at many of the trees.

My Thanksgiving wasn’t much of a break because I worked every single day except for Thanksgiving and Saturday when I had family over. I needed a chance to relax, but I didn’t really get the opportunity to take a break. I’m too short on money to not work my entire break.


Even though I worked the majority of my break, I enjoyed spending at least a couple of days with my family. Those short breaks were exactly what I needed to help recharge me and get me through my upcoming finals. I’m eager to finish my final papers and projects so I can go home for a long Christmas break!

  1. It sounds like you still had a great break despite how much you had to work! I am sorry about that part, but at least you're hopefully making good money!
    It is so cool you went to a Christmas tree farm! I have never had the opportunity of doing so, but always wanted to! Try to relax over Christmas break!

  2. Considering you had to work it still sound alike you had a decent time. Did you have to work on black friday and deal with all the crazy people? I have a couple friends who have had to work twelve-hour shifts because of the rush.
    Hopefully you can relax over Christmas break. But if you can't do not feel bad because I'll be working the entire time, too.
