Soon will be thanksgiving.I was reading an article about the history of thanksgiving and it said that the first American Thanksgiving was celebrated in 1621.The colonists celebrated it as a traditional English harvest feast. Days of thanksgiving were celebrated throughout the colonies after fall harvests.I also found out that George Washington was the first president to declare the holiday.So Thanksgiving is on the fourth Thursday of November,
