The Hanukkah Party

Last week my whole family went to a Hanukkah party at my Uncle gio's house in nyc . The first thing we did when we got there was open presents. Uncle gio always gives usedwin presents. This year he gave me a(n) money and my little sister, anthoy, a(n) dead people.

ohh my god, Uncle gio,” I said, “How did you know I wanted a(n) money?”

Then anthoy, my cousins, and I played a dreidel game. My cousin rodolfo put an empty bowl in the center of the table, and gave us each our own pile of candy for the game.anthoy went first, spun a shin, and had to put a piece of her candy in the bowl. I could tell she wanted to eat, but she knew she had to behave. The bowl continued to fill with candy, with most of us spinning shin. Then I spun a gimel. I got the whole bowl of candy!

On the way home, I whispered to anthoy that I would share my candy with her, but she had fallen fast asleep.
