Next comes Thanksgiving where all Americans have a feast to celebrate our new found country as the Pilgrims did, and to give thanks for everything we have. Then comes the most exciting one of all! That's right, Christmas! Buying presents, receiving presents, trimming the Christmas tree, Christmas parties, but most of all we can't forget the real reason for Christmas. Then, last but not least comes New Year's Eve! There were many parties, and celebrations for the ringing in of the New Year! The Fall Holidays are fun and full of spirit.
