The usual,watching the Cowboys play football.We don't have anything really big or special nowadays.I mean my two sisters and their families live in Colorado and
Alaska respectively so it's not like we can get everyone together.When we lived back on the west side of the Cascades in western Washington we used to have it with my unclea,aunts and cousins on my dad's side.

Staying at school, might sleep a lot.

We are going to our aunt and uncle's(Dad's side) house for dinner. My mom's side of the family is coming too. Or at least three of them are. Its always fun to see if they will mix. My dads side is rambuncious and wild, my mom's side is rather reserved.

Take it to the ground and work Jiu Jitsu on them. I hear they have a weak groundgame.

I'm driving home to spend it with my family. Two aunts on my dad's side plus an uncle and cousin will be there as well. I'm very excited because I haven't seen them in years, especially not all together; I think the last time I saw all of them together was at the cousin's graduation in 2001. I'll also get to see my boyfriend. I'll probably end up sleeping and watching tv the whole time since I haven't done much of either since august, plus a little homework.

You are coming with me, dear sibling, and eating your fill of turkey at the professor's house.
No way to get out of it. Nope. None.
Turkey! Real, wholesome turkey! I am soooo sick of cafeteria food...this will be the highlight of the semester! Yes!

I gotta work. *grumblegrumble* But on the bright side, they'll be serving a free turkey dinner in the cafeteria. And I'll be off Christmas and New Year's.

Hmm...Thanksgiving is a great time when the family comes home. We usually say hello and things and then eat fondue instead of turkey (we are chinese). By the time after we ate it's night time. The next the family goes to my father's 1st wife's family's house and THEN! We, haha, we have real turkey! Delicious, juicy, mouthwatering turkey! The adults watch football while the kids play with their handheld games or play Halo 2 on the TV in the other living room.

Jeez, most of you are going somewhere! I am jealous. I am staying home all week, and while many of my friends are getting to enjoy our week long break, I am working everyday except Thursday.
But I will be making money, (albeit, not even enough for iincome taxes to be taken out which is kinda nice, actually), which is a good thing.
On the other hand, since my boyfriend's dad is a nutty alcoholic who can't remember what day it is, my boyfriend will be having Thanksgiving dinner with my mom, brother, mom's best friend and me at our local Black Eyed Pea.
That means I'll get to spend more time with him!
W00t!

Watch the parades. Cook with the whole family. The men make pumpkin pies. We eat on the prettiest antique plates given by family members over the year (yes - even with the little ones!). We light candles for the meal and we go around the table, each telling what the person is thankful for.

Thanksgiving in the woods! =^.^=

Going to Greenfield, Indiana to see both sides of my family. It's awesome when both of your grandparents live 5 blocks away from eachother. So I'll pretty much have two Thanksgiving dinners but then again it pretty much goes eating from 12-11 PM anyway. I hope my cousin's new boyfriend will be there too so I can scare him... Get to play some Zelda on my cousin's Wii too.
