After what seemed like an eternity, the horse movie finished and the adults called them in to help set the table. Justin had to tell Emily where everything was because he was more familiar with the house. Everything was set up quickly and they were all ready to chow down when Aunt Rhonda spoke up.
"Wait! Before we eat, we all need to say something we're thankful for."
All of the cousins groaned simultaneously. They had to come up with something every year when their minds were blank from salivating over the food in front of them. It was usually an awkward affair. Even more so now that there was someone new at the table.
"I'll go first," Aunt Rhonda continued. "I'm thankful that Emily is able to spend Thanksgiving with us."
