Thanksgiving

Thursday November 27 was thanksgiving. This is an American celebration
where you eat a lot of food. We ate turkey. Mashed potatoes, corn, stuffing, breads, pies cakes and ice cream. In a traditional celebration you say grace before you eat and every one have to say what they are grateful for. It is also very common to watch football games. We saw
Texas longhorns win against their rivals Texas a&m.

After we ha eaten first at my hostmothers mothers house and then my hostfathers parents house we went Home to change and then we went to aStore. I went to HEB. I sat outside the store for 7 hours to wait till it opened, i did it because the day after thanksgiving is known as black Friday and is the day of the year they have the most sales. When HEB finally opened at 5 a clock in the morning i ran in to the store to Get an iPod touch. I got it for 169 dollars that is about 1000 nok. Everyone went crazy to get what they wanted. All the Wii's and TV's got sold out within 30 sec. It was a fun experience, but practice was hard that day. I came home at 6:30am so i only got two hours of sleep before practice that was from 9:30 till 12:30.
