Thanksgiving

One memories I have from Thanksgiving is going on our trip to Vermont every year.  We'd always leave after the thanksgiving Football game and arrive at my grandmothers house in Vermont around lunch time.  We always ate around 3:00 and watch the Macy's Day parade that they taped for us.  Thanksgiving is a good time to get together with your family and eat good food.
