This website is written and produced by real folks. Its purpose is to showcase the modern celebration of Thanksgiving — real observance, real experiences, real dilemmas, real controversy, real gratitude and happiness. We aren’t professional writers or webmasters — we are just regular folks with an appreciation for Thanksgiving.

This site is a companion site to Real Christmas.com and Real Halloween.com — and part of the overall family of holiday websites known as the Merry Network.

We are the makers of My Merry Christmas, the largest and one of the oldest Christmas websites online. We publish to millions of holiday lovers around the world, having covered Christmas extensively for more than 19 years (and more than a decade here online). We celebrate the season year round with people from around the world.

We welcome your feedback as we grow this celebration of Thanksgiving.
