thanksgiving

I had a really fun Thanksgiving this year. This is one of the first years since I was 12 that I have been able to spend the holiday with my family. Every year since I was 12, I went to Louisville, KY to play in a tennis tournament and I always went with my coach and other players and never with my family. We went to Atlanta because my aunt, uncle, 2 cousins and grandparents live there. My brother and his wife also came down. I enjoy spending time with my 2 cousins because they are both a little younger than me and I feel like they have always looked up to me a little bit. Unfortunately, I do not get to see them very much but when I do, I like to make it count. We all played tennis together and then they took me to this farm where they keep their dirt bike. I had ridden a dirt bike several times when I was in middle school so I figured I could still do it. I was riding in a big fenced in circle and on my second lap I told my cousins I thought I had the hang of it and then proceeded to crash into the fence. I hurt my ankle and hand and also broke off the front fender of the bike and side. I got back up though and after awhile I even taught myself how to ride wheelies. It was sweet. Afterwards, we all played ping pong and I dominated, as I have never lost to my little cousins in any sporting activity, and hopefully never will. All in all I would say it was one of my favorite if not favorite Thanksgivings because I actually got to spend it with my family and we all got a long and had fun.
