The Look of Thanksgiving


In the year 1621 colonials of Plymouth, Massachusetts feasted with the Wampanoag Indians.  Little did they know the season of fall would never be the same!  Two hundred years later, the Thanksgiving holiday was declared official.

Thanksgiving is traditionally celebrated as a formal affair; over time it has evolved to be more comfortable and family-friendly.
