Whats your favorite part of Thanksgiving?

Caseysmom, I hope you have a stress-free Thanksgiving with your sister and all the others. Please tell me she didn't really ask you to bring mashed potatoes for 23 people. If she did, I hope you ordered them from a restaurant!

I like Thanksgiving because it's a relatively low-key holiday for my very dysfunctional family. A nice meal, no gifts, and it's okay to only stay a few hours because of having to work the weekend.

I really don't mind bringing food, its hard to explain my sis but I can sum it up with a story. One year my mom brought a friend with her for one of the holidays I can't remember but I think it was christmas, the lady was a widower and would have been alone. My sister griped about it for months that my mom brought her "since she only had one arm and could hardly even help" okay, can anyone believe that?

Definitely the company..Nothing better than sitting around a big table and eating a great meal with the people you love

I've never had Thanksgiving with family, but have been treated like family by some generous friends. Because of that Thanksgiving has always been my favoritie holiday. I like the idea of giving thanks and being appreciative of all that I have in life. The kind of food served at Thanksgiving also just happens to be a favorite of mine. Bring on the pumpkin pie...

My favorite part is being with family and friends, laughing, eating, playing board games and talking about old times.

I put pie, because I love my mom's apple pie, but what I really should have put is "other". Just the mix of everything, food, family, fun, conversation, and the start of the Christmas season.. No school is always a bonus for me as well! I am EXTRA excited for Christmas this year, because I will be spending it in the BAHAMAS!! I'll let you all in on that little story when the time comes to leave.

This was my favorite part of Thanksgiving:

Mike came over for my family's, then I went over his family's.

The company. No matter who it is. This year, my parents were out of town so I spent the day with my boyfriend's family then hung out and partied with my sister and a bunch of friends. It was fantastic.

Three way tie between food, company, and parade for me. I voted parade though.

Gosh, I am sooo excited for tonight's dinner! I voted the food, but I also love the company, the weekend off, and the pie!
