Thanksgiving is just around the corner and here at Her Campus UC Berkeley we put together 5 things we absolutely love about Thanksgiving. Check it out! 

1. Food. Food. Food.
 
 
2. Reuniting with Family 
 
 
Spending time with family members that you miss and rarely get to see. Many of you come from far places and those precious hours with your family are priceless. 
 
3. The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade!
 
 
Many of you have grown up watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and this year isn’t an exception. The wonderful balloons, guests, and  musical numbers make Thanksgiving morning an amazing Holiday. 
 
4. Black Friday
Deals, Deals, and more Deals. 
 
5. Christmas is just weeks away. 
 
 
The day after Thanksgiving is finally the day that you can fully crank up your Christmas music, decorate your home, and put up the Christmas tree without having people look at you weird cause “it’s November.” Oh, we can already feel the Christmas spirit! 
We wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!!
