Thanksgiving Traditions

My family does not really do anything special for thanksgiving anymore. When my grandma was alive, we used to go over to her house and she would make an enormous dinner. It was always good. Ever since she passed away, we stay at home and make a small dinner. It is nothing too big. Last year we went to a thanksgiving play. That was nice. This year, since my brother is out of the house, we are probably just going to go out and eat. Another thing that is sort of a tradition in our house is the Thanksgiving Day parade and game. We usually wake up early too watch the parade and then after that we all sit down and watch the football game. Another thing that my dad does is hunt. He always loves to go out and hunt on thanksgiving with my uncle Bill. I am finally going to join him this year. I hope that it becomes a tradition even after I move out. When I move out and get settled with my own family, I hope to begin a tradition. I cannot cook so I will marry somebody that can. I hope to be able to wake up and watch the parade and then the game like I do now. I also hope to continue going out and hunting with my dad. Then when my kids get older (God willing) I hope that they enjoy all of the traditional activities as much as I do.
