Thanksgiving Day is traditionally a day when family gather with friends and strangers. We celebrate what we are thankful for and mostly for the freedom that our forefathers fought so hard for. It is a tradition in my family that after the blessing on the food, everyone gets to say 1 thing they are thankful for and they can't repeat a response that another has already made. We start with the youngest and move to the oldest. It builds awareness in our family of what we are grateful for.

i usually get together with my family and go see relatives that live far away the ones u hardly ever see anymore. Then me and my hubby visit his side of the family and then eat until you cant adjust your belt on your pants.. The men watch football and the women gossip , me i watch the games cus I'm a sports nut...Then we either catch a movie and go home .. and stop by my moms house the next day and pick up leftovers.
