Why I Am Excited For Thanksgiving:

1. Food, duh. That one doesn't have to be explained. It is tastey, but it is also such a fun meal! Everyone crowded and eating and talking and laughing and in everyones business! Doesn't sound very happy, but I love it!
2. The large quantity of family that comes every year! Well, should come. I love having so many people crowded into the one living room that has tables from wall to wall. It makes things more exciting/interesting/chlaustrophobic. Its great!
3. Football is fun. It usually morphs from co-ed to just guys because the girls only touch the ball during the first 5 minutes of the game, but whatever. Its fun running around pretending like you know what your doing. The crazy plays are fun too. There is always the one where you put the ball in someones shirt and make them run down the field while another person fakes that they have the ball. Works every time, right?
4. Singing!!! Thanksgiving is like the transition to Christmas. And there are no Thanksgiving songs, so the Udall Family Choir just whips out the Hallelujah Chorus. Also Angels We Have Heard On High. Thats a favorite. I love our singing time! What the primary?
5. I am way excited for the ZipLine! It just seems like Udall houses are meant to have one. I have many memories zipping from the old pear tree, and now I will get to do it again! Yay!

I LOVE THANKSGIVING!!!
