Thanksgiving to me means a day where I can just eat and eat and eat.  For thanksgiving I normally either go to my aunt's house or my family all comes to my house.  But when they come to my house it's really annoying because they always stay late and I just want them to dip out and leave.  I normally eat tons of turkey, ham, mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes.  Normally on Thanksgiving my family goes out and shoots guns and me and my cousins go do something and have dinner on Wednesday.  We celebrate Thanksgiving to give thanks for what we have and the things around us.
