It is almost that time of year. Walking the streets of Chicago reminds me everyday the holidays are coming. The leaves all over the sidewalk and the crisp breeze are a few of the everyday reminders here in Chicago. This year I plan on spending Thanksgiving with my family who live on the Southside of Chicago. I am bringing Liz's poem about Beverly to Thanksgiving dinner because my McAuley cousins are every bit of that poem and I can't wait to give it to them.
Anywho, I am really excited for the holidays. Many people dread the holidays for whatever reason- however I refuse. I try and focus on the positives rather than the family drama that each family deals with every holiday season. There are so many things I want to do before Christmas. I promised my younger cousins they could come visit me in my DOWNTOWN apartment and we could have a slumber party. They think it is just the coolest thing in the world. I want to take them to Millenium Park and State steet so they can see the big tree. For some reason the Cheesecake Factory reminds me of the holidays so we'll probably swing by there for dinner. My aunt took me dowtown when I was younger around this time so I want to be sure to return the favor.
