Family Drawing a La Carmen Lomas Garza

Thanksgiving is a national holiday that is spent consuming thousands of calories with your loved ones, and thanking them all for their existence in your life. Thanksgiving is a day to be thankful for all your blessings. It is a day to feel gratitude for all that you have and all that you’ve been given. Every Thanksgiving I visit my grandparents, my uncles, my aunts, and my cousins. I thank them for everything they have done for and show my appreciation for having them in my life. This Thanksgiving all my relatives came over to spend the day at our house, and have dinner. I was excited to see my whole family come over and spend the entire day with us. In the picture I sketched, you can see one the tables my mother and my sister prepared for all the people coming. The table is in my living room where a panoramic window looks into my front yard. I tried my best to make the picture look as realistic as it can be, so I apologize for the lack of my artistic skills. I tried to make the table as full as I could because my mother is known setting up tables full of dishes and foods very different culture.
