Thanksgiving!

Hi everyone! I bet most of you are excited about the upcoming holiday, Thanksgiving! I know I am! Thanksgiving is the time of year when we should be thankful for what we have. It is when we all come together as a family and spend time together. On Thanksgiving, it is a tradition for many families across the nation to have a big turkey feast! When everyone is together as a family, you realize how important family is. They raised you, guided you, and they are people you can trust. But most important, is that they love you. That is the true meaning of Thanksgiving. I hope you have a wonderful holiday and remember, be thankful!

Hi everyone! Today's post is just a fun little story that I whipped up. Hope you enjoy it!               It was Thursday, July 18. The year was 1989. It was a hot summer day. The wind was blowing across a field of green grass and flowers. 14 year-old Ally McDawn's house was just opposite that field.

Veterans Day

November 11 is Veterans Day. This is the day that we get to honor all those people who are fighting for our rights every second of every day. America fought hard to gain independance, and in 1776 its dream came true. The patriot army was led by none other than General George Washington. We defeated the British at the Battle of Yorktown. The Veterans are the people who keep us safe. They are the Patriot army of modern day. The Veterans are strong, brave, courageous and determined. But most of all, they are heroes. For all their services, I say a sincere "Thank You" to all the Veterans. Click on the links below to access videos  that are a tribute to veterans day! God Bless The USA We are proud of our veterans
