November 28th- It's that time of year again, a time to celebrate with friends and family. November 28th is a day of Thanksgiving, essentially a day of thanks and giving. Here are a few things that you can do on this family-oriented holiday:

1)Gather around with friends and family for a huge meal(what's Thanksgiving without a huge meal? and friends and family?).

2)You could head to a parade. In NY, you could head to the Macy's Parade.

3. Eat until you drop-this is the only day that no one will judge you for eating several plates of food .

4)Rent a movie and watch with your friends and family.

Whatever you do, spend time with family and friends and realize what's most important in life and then be thankful that you're alive to enjoy it all.

~History: In 1621, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared an autumn harvest feast which is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies. This harvest meal has become a symbol of cooperation and interaction between English colonists and Native Americans. Although this feast is considered by many to the very first Thanksgiving celebration, it was actually in keeping with a long tradition of celebrating the harvest and giving thanks for a successful bounty of crops. Native American groups throughout the Americas, including the Pueblo, Cherokee, Creek and many others organized harvest festivals, ceremonial dances, and other celebrations of thanks for centuries before the arrival of Europeans in North America.(Source)
