My family eats the traditional turkey dinner and dessert. Then we all watch the football games, give off a lot of gas and then we all fall asleep. Best day of the year.

We pardon the turkey, set him free, then hunt him down. We like to mix our compassion with cruelty.

Each person in my family chooses a few recipes that look good, and once we've spent our entire break off of school finding the junkiest and fattest unhealthy foods we make 'em and stuff our faces with the worst foods possible :D:D:D Also, my sister usually makes up really strange and funny games which we play all night. Or we make movies and play outside :D:D:D:D:D

I think everyone does this but it’s the only thing I can think of. We go around the table and say what each of us is thankful for and what made this day special. Then we pray that the years to come would be filed with even more to be thankful for.

Watching the Macys Thanksgiving parade. When my grandfather was alive, we would all say one thing we were thankful for, say grace and eat.

family dinner with turkey and cranberry, relatives come over from states, sometimes relatives of other relatives also come over, we have a night of laughs and jokes and then play a family board game while drinking either ice wine or cherry wine (from portugual) then we listen to music and look at vacation photos of our last place (we take an average of 900 photos when we visit france or italy)
