First thanksgiving ever!

Happy thanksgiving everyone!

Thanksgiving is a holiday in America and Canada, its a celebration of giving thanks for the harvest and express gratitude in general. I want to thank my family in Sweden for the love we share and that they support me and my choice to be an exchange student :) <3>


This is my first thanksgiving and its going to be fun! We will celebrate thanksgiving with the family and Al's daughter and her children. Georgeannes brother and sister couldn't come so thats sad but it will be awesome anyway :) My donation for the thanksgiving dinner was a swedish apple cake, it turned out really well! We also have a huge turkey on 22 pounds.


I will take some pictures during the day and update it here later.

3 1/2 Days of weekend WHOOO!

Had an early out yesterday so we got out from school at 1.20 was pretty awesome! Was hanging out with Dana and Nathaniel again for a while before we went to the playpractice that Dana is in, I'm just helping out with the light because Dana asked and they needed help. Went home after that cause i was really tired, ate, talked with Georgeanne for a while, then checked my laptop and after that i was pretty much dead so i went to bed.

We have no school today because the teachers have an conference day where they talk about stuff lol. So I'm going yo Kyles collage to play some racquetball with him its doing to awesome! Tonight... I think i will go to a girl who i like, she has a bonfire or maybe go to the forth kind again with some other friends haha. That's my plans for the weekend so far.

School is going really good and we just finished the first quarter of the school year. I have 8 classes and have total 5 A and 3 B. Photo = B, Choir = A, Psychology = A, Chemistry = A, English = B, Woods = A, PE = A and American History = B. So I'm quite Satisfied with my grades :)

Basketball season starts soon and my goal for the season is to start in JV, I mean i started varsity in football and i had never played it before so I figure why not aim high in basketball too :) I'm a competitor! We start the season at the 16 November.
Here are two pictures that i like :) The American breakfast, scrambled eggs with bacon and a waffle. The other one is of some Native American corn!



P.S I really love it here in Iowa and i really like my family and i have got to known a lot of people and got a lot of new friends :)
