Thanksgiving: Different Traditions For Different Holidays

Every year for me, we head to my aunt's house on my mom's side at 2 o’clock where all the food is homemade. Soon after that we go to my grandma on my dad's side were the food is a little bit worse. Other people often have Thanksgiving held at their house. The whole family comes to their house for Thanksgiving. I thought everyone had two Thanksgiving like me!

Thanksgiving, most Americans celebrate Thanksgiving but not everyone celebrates it the same way as you. Grandma’s house, that’s where i always go for thanksgiving.

On the fourth Thursday of every November, families gather together to spend a day filled with food and laughter. Thanksgiving celebrates the day the settlers and the Native Americans enjoyed their first meal together. However, my parents were both raised in Mexico and never had a typical yearly Thanksgiving celebration. Despite my parents home being Mexico, they started a family in America and decided to teach their children about both of the places they come from. A compromise between American and Mexican traditions formed and served as a family tradition until last year. A year ago, my family ate a Thanksgiving meal at my sister's parent-in-laws house.

When you think of Thanksgiving, what usually comes to your mind? Thanksgiving is all about being thankful and eating great food. It is the one day of the year that no one will judge you for eating so much food that it should be humanly impossible. It is so great! Other holidays have food, but nothing like Thanksgiving. There is usually a good meal on Christmas, but the whole day isn’t dedicated to food. You don’t spend all day preparing a feast fit for a king. Valentine's Day is filled with chocolate and candy, which is good, but not near as good as the turkey on Thanksgiving. You also might go on a date to a nice restaurant, but that’s only if you have a significant other. The food would still be hard to compare with the Thanksgiving meal. Just thinking about Thanksgiving could make anybody's mouth water. I’m talking about stuffing, mashed potatoes, rolls, sweet potatoes and brown sugar, and then the pies! The smells and aromas of the food cooking before the dinner outways

I got to talk to some people about how they celebrated their thanksgiving. I always wondered how other people celebrated back in the day and in present day. I thought that everybody celebrated their thanksgiving with all of their family and roasted a turkey. After talking to other people I found out that I was wrong to think that.

In my house hold, Thanksgiving is honestly not a “big deal”, but it is well cherished regardless. Family that I have living around the bay area would come to my house and would bring the sweet items. Items like pecan pie, cherry pie, carrot cake, and homemade cookies. I guess you could say that’s kind of a tradition of ours? The main cooking is left to my mom and I, that’s where we bring out the Turkey, sometimes we would fry it or just bake it regularly, the mac and cheese homemade with a different mix of cheeses, a potatoe casorle with egg, and a side of stuffing either stuffed into the turkey or baked outside the turkey.

Thanksgiving is a holiday that is celebrated in America, but it has a fairly dark history to what most people know. Most people know that the Pilgrims came over to America on a boat called the mayflower and made friends with the Native Americans then they celebrated it and made this holiday. While this is somewhat true there is more to it than that. For example the Pilgrims may have came on a boat called the Mayflower, but it wasn’t to make friends with the Native Americans but to spread

In many ways current American cultural beliefs and norms related to gatherings and traditions are similar to those of non-industrialized societies. Examples of family gatherings that we in our American society share include; Thanksgiving, Super bowl parties, and Christmas dinner. Christmas dinner however is based on religious beliefs so we will leave it out of this discussion for the purpose of in composing all American citizens in the discussion.

Since my family lived so close together, we had many family traditions that remain important. We gather for nearly every holiday for a meal and routine. For Easter every year, we have an Easter egg hunt and dinner at my grandmother’s house. For Christmas Eve, we always went to my great-grandparents house and had dinner and exchanged gifts. For Christmas, we celebrated at home, and then went to my grandmother's for breakfast with our cousins. The importance of all of the holidays we celebrated was that no matter what was going on in our lives,

We all have family traditions, some of which we take pride in, some of which we dread and despise but, whether you know it or not they are what make us who we are. One of my favorite traditions that I can truly say I’m passionate for would have to be Thanksgiving dinner. The dinner for the holiday goes by in a blink of an eye because of all the enjoyment.

Since the holiday comes up before we know it, we get started as soon as the year hits mid fall.

As the family grew older, every one separated and as my cousins and I got older and had our own children the holidays at grandmothers house have faded away. No one even goes to grandmothers house for Thanksgiving or Christmas, and there are no more Easter Sunday egg
