We sleep in that morning, have a late brunch, then all gather together to make dinner and hang out late.

Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade plays on the television while we prepare the food for cooking. We have our feast by the late afternoon. The elves come Thanksgiving night and bring holiday pajamas along with a string of decorations to kick off the Christmas season.

My family eats a small breakfast, then we get to cooking all day together. In the afternoon, there's always a lull where we're waiting for the turkey to finish roasting, so we listen to Alice's Restaurant, an old musical performance, which we can listen to THEN AND ONLY THEN.

Every year we eat Thanksgiving food, and watch the movie Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.

We avoid our mom in the kitchen until it’s time to eat (she doesn’t like people in the kitchen with her lol). We eat around 4, I pretend to care about the football game then take a nap!

For my family’s Thanksgiving tradition, we typically wake up incredibly early and make food. I usually go through my contact list and wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving before we eat. By then, the Turkey is usually done and we all eat Thanksgiving lunch together. Immediately after, we take a nap, only to wake up for dinner and eat again.
