What are your Thanksgiving traditions?

“I guess it’s pretty traditional. We just do the family thing. We usually travel down to Sioux Falls. We usually have a couple Thanksgiving dinners just at the separate families. I’m kind of by myself out here; I don’t celebrate. I have some brothers that live near-by. But back in Minnesota we just hang out with family, it’s not really about Thanksgiving so much, it’s just about the family.”

“We get together with our family and have a huge Thanksgiving dinner in our cabin in Northern Wisconsin.”

“Family tradition would be everyone coming together, like everyone under one roof; everyone’s cooking a part of the meal, so it all becomes one. Then after, everyone in the kitchen, cleaning up, doing a sing along [or] karaoke.”

“As a family we go over to my Aunt’s house every year, which is what I’m going to be doing this year. We usually have turkey, ham, [and] as many sides as can fit on the three tables throughout the house. We go there around 11 a.m. and just eat all the food.”
