My Thanksgiving. Lets just say it's a relaxed one. I wake up about 9:30 in the morning to watch the Thanksgiving day Parade - for the best part, the marching bands of course. After that my family and I starts cooking the turkey. While the turkey is cooking, we sit down to watch the Purina National Dog Show picking our favorites in each different category. Then the cooking really begins. We prepare the usual thanksgiving meal for my family with turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, stuffing, gravy, sister-hubert's rolls, and pumpkin pie! Last night, we also sat down for a longgggg family movie- the second Lord of the Ring movie (extended version). I quite enjoy this holiday because it lets my family and I calm down our busy lives and for me to catch up on homework. My favorite memory of thanksgiving is just being able to have my grandfather eating dinner with us. I miss him very much and the Thanksgiving table just doesn't seem the same without him. He was the life of the party (whether awake or sleeping in the lazy boy chair with his snoring). I will never forget the laughs shared nor the smiling faces during those thanksgivings.
