I Love Thanksgiving!

I love Thanksgiving, and not just because it's the official kick-off to legal Christmas celebrations.

• I love the parade
• I love the food
• I love having family and laughter fill my home
• I love the after-dinner street hockey game
• I love the pies (yes, that is different from the rest of the food!)
• I love watching Louisa May Alcott's "An Old Fashioned Thanksgiving" on the Hallmark channel
• Finally, I love watching "Elf"! (Its allowed after dinner)
