My favorite part of Thanksgiving is the good food. My mom always makes my favorite chocolate pie. My mamaw always makes mac and cheese. My aunt always makes brownies. I can’t wait until Thanksgiving.

If I could pick one thing I like about Thanksgiving it would be Thanksgiving break from school. Okay I know you’re going to be asking why not family, friends, or food you eat. Well, because when you’re taking time off school you still get to spend time with family and eat, and relax from school, work and have fun with family and my animals. This is the thing I would pick for Thanksgiving but if it was Scoby’s and Shagy’s favorite part it would be the food.
Emma Borders, 5th, Weber City Elementary, Mrs. Webb

My favorite part of Thanksgiving is hunting turkey. When we hunt I go with my papaw, my uncle, my other uncle, my dad, and my aunt. I hunt turkeys in the morning and then when we kill about three we bring them back home. When we get home we pluck the turkeys. We take one to my mamaw and one to my aunt. Then my siblings and I get one. I love Thanksgiving. I can’t wait until this Thanksgiving!
Ashton Elliott, 5th, Weber City Elementary, Mrs. Webb
My favorite part about the Thanksgiving holiday is the food. Thanksgiving is one of the best parts of the year at my house. We cook most of our food from scratch. We make things like pumpkin pie, apple pie, caramel cake, strawberry cake, turkey, ham, pork, cranberry sauce, apple butter, pecan pie, and sweet potato casserole. We have a tradition to have a huge cookout on Thanksgiving. We invite friends and family and they bring food to serve. I love having cookouts because I get to see people I don’t see a lot.

What is your favorite part about the Thanksgiving holiday? My favorite part of the Thanksgiving holiday is Black Friday! I like Black Friday because everything is cheap!

I love Black Friday.

My favorite part about Thanksgiving is seeing my family. My family is fun. We have a tradition on Thanksgiving that we make pies like blueberry, strawberry, pumpkin, and apple pie. First we make the dough form it in its shape then add the apples that we have canned also add more dough to the top of the pie. Another thing we love to do is watching floats we usually stand behind a fence so nobody will run up and go on the floats and I love that they throw out candy to all the children. When my mom and I go to the store we love to pick out decorations for Thanksgiving so people feel more welcome to our home. I love that I get to spend time with my family members.

My favorite part about the Thanksgiving holiday is playing with my cousin. My cousin and I always play hide and seek tag with my brother. It is really fun because my brother is always it. My favorite spot is the garden because it has tall plants. Another game we play is ”Run from the Dogs”. ”Run from the Dogs” is a game where you can’t get touched by the dogs. If you do you are stuck until someone tags you. We play that all day until we leave. Playing with my cousin is my favorite part of Thanksgiving.
