- Not only can you help out in your local community; you can help out the people who have been affected by Super Storm Sandy. This Thanksgiving will not be the same for many because of the devastation cause by the storm, but by helping these families out they will know many people are thinking and caring about them through this difficult time. You can collect canned foods, donate clothing, or any essentials these families may need.
- Get together with friends and just have fun. Have a night out with your closest friends, play a game of flag football in the park, bake together, and pamper yourselves, sit in and watch a night of football. Look on websites such as Pinterest to get fun, crafty ideas you and your friends can do together on a girls night in.

Spending time with your family is very important. Thanksgiving is a time for giving thanks and there’s no better way than to spend it with family.
