We all need a mid-Fall break in order to get ready for all of the excitement that will be coming with the December holidays. Luckily, Thanksgiving is right around the corner and there is a lot to look forward to and a lot to be thankful for. Here are just some reasons you may be looking forward to this upcoming holiday.
1. The dinner food

The turkey and mashed potatoes and all of the other great food is going to be on the table and we just can't wait to dig in.

At this point it's just tradition to watch the parade with all of the floats in New York City, and of course see Santa at the end waving to us.

Sometimes we don't get to see our families everyday, and that's why holidays are so special, so we can spend time with them.
