What is your favorite holiday and why do you like it?

My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving, and it is especially apropos that it is because it is creeping around the corner. Some years I eat a huge meal with my dad's side of the family, which is scattered throughout Louisiana. Other times, we travel to San Antonio to celebrate Thanksgiving with my mom's side. I like Thanksgivings with them better because they are younger and more fun.

Aside from the traditional turkey, I always eat a different kind of meat, especially when I eat with my dad's side. We are avid hunters, and elk is usually the choice meat at dinner, because it is in season and my dad just killed an elk last week in Montana. In San Antonio, it is usually turkey and ham with tamales and enchiladas, which I can't complain about.

This year, my uncle's family from San Antonio are coming to visit us for the first time in years, and I am super excited. His two kids are named Guy and Ana, and are seven and five, respectively. I can't wait to have a blast with them!
