Dear everyone,

I am still new to this country, not familiar with a few holidays. In America, what do you do to celebrate Labor Day?


My favourite one is Halloween:D so far, I can't believe I can dress up ANYTHING I want, how awesome it is!! :cool:

If you have any other interesting holiday history and story, please share with me.

Thank you in advance.:)

Labor Day is generally celebrated with parades. Its also the traditional end of summer and people often celebrate with BBQs.

Oh... I see. Ah~, my friend has invited me to her family for lunch next Monday, I guess I will be eating BBQ then. Yummy:)
What would you suggest to bring for the lunch next Monday?

A six pack?

a six pack?

:p well, I don't drink... it'd be funny for ME to bring it...
Anything else?

An apple pie

Good idea! Thank you.:)

Take something sweet (like you) with chocolate in it, like brownies.

Or if it is hot, you could bring a big ole fruit salad!

Labor Day is like celebrating having a job by taking a day off!
LOL I think the whole world should celebrate having enough work.
We just need to mark the significant end of summer, school has begun again in most areas. And it's also a reminder to finish shopping for Halloween and start shopping for Christmas.

Oh no, don't get to Christmas yet, I can't handle that yet. I still need to get my summer over with.

Well then I hate to do this to you... Macy's in my town has their Christmas trees AND ornaments out already. I nearly fell over when I saw them.

Yet - Macy's does not have out all their Fall shoes... where are their priorities??

No kidding. I am going to get out of this house and see what the world is coming to on Sunday. Thanks a lot Glinda... hmph!

Nicepsringgirl you will also notice that all of our summer holidays are pretty much the same. Everyone has big BBQ's, goes to the beach, watches fireworks, parades. I guess it just seems like the best time of the year for eating too much BBQ and watching big explosions in the sky.

I agree Halloween is the best! I love giving out candy to the kids that's my new favorite part. They all look so cute!
