Thanksgiving

Each year my family uses Thanksgiving as a time to get together and enjoy being with each other. Everyone tries to contribute a dish to take the stress away from one single person. This always leaves us with plenty of food and such a variety that even if you took a little of everything, it still couldn't fit on your plate. Right before we begin to eat, we all gather around the table and pray. After this we begin filling our plates and then searching for some place to sit down and eat. There is always too many people to fit at one table so we spread out throughout the whole house. One of my favorite memories was at my grandma's house when we sat down and lined the hallway to eat because all the seats were taken.
I really enjoy any holiday because it gives me a chance to see my extended family. We all live far apart so seeing each other frequently isn't possible. Holidays bring us all together and allow us to catch up on everything that we've missed.
