Relaxation 14a

Relax, relax, relax. That’s all I plan on doing this week. I have some work that I need to do but other than that I plan on eating a lot of food and enjoying the company of my family and friends. I think the best part about the break is that there are so many people back from school. All of my friends came back home from their colleges in New York, Washington, and Massachusetts. I plan on hanging out with them for the majority of the week. We all haven't been together since August so I'm looking forward to seeing them all again.

For Thanksgiving, I'm going to my cousins house who I don’t see often. We are a weird family. We don’t rarely eat turkey on thanksgiving because I'm the only one who likes it. We normally eat ham with all the fixings. It's always nice sitting around the table talking about stories from when we were younger, or stories about vacations. We have three different generations all around one table. Thanksgiving wouldn’t feel the same without everyone around the table.

The best part about thanksgiving is the Football. Not only is it on T.V but every year, we play our own game. We split the teams 5 on 5. And we just play. We play until it's dark or until someone gets hurt or whatever. It's always fun and entertaining. Someday, I hope to continue the tradition.

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. Christmas is all about receiving and giving but thanksgiving is about enjoying the company of others. That’s why it's my favorite, I would rather sit with my cousins and talk about our childhood together than open gift after gift. It's just not as fun as reminiscing.
