2. The way my family and I celebrate Thanksgiving is by cooking traditional foods like turkey, dressing, candy yams, pies, and many more foods. The purpose of Thanksgiving is to give thanks about any and everything you’re grateful for. Normally we listen to Gospel, R&B, and Rap music, and sit around the house talking and laughing.

4. The way my family and I celebrate Christmas, is by giving gifts to one another, cooking traditional foods such as, a whole chicken, ham, dressing, mac & cheese, sweet potatoes, cookies, and several more delicious foods. We also listen to Christmas music, laugh and go outside and play in the snow (if it snowed outside). The purpose of Christmas is to celebrate the birth of Jesus on December 25.

6. The Fourth of July is also known as Independence Day. The purpose of July 4 th is to celebrate the day the Declaration of Independence was published. On this day my friends, family, and I normally BBQ, at a relative’s house or a park. Listen to Rap & R&B music, sing and dance. Then later when the sun starts to go down, my friends, family, and I either go to the VP fair downtown and watch fireworks and/or pop our own fireworks.
