Columbus day is a sham, he never discovered the america mainlaind, and so doesnt deserve a holiday. I believe it used to be a day off, glad that was changed.
Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas: I enjoy these holidays because they bting my whole family together. Plus all that great food. Hmmmm. Too I enjoy all the activities i get to do with my son. Dyeibg eggs, Easter egg hunts on Easter ( in a few years ill get him ibto the yearly tradition of watching jaws on easter as passed on to me by my dad) giving him presents on christmas is fun too)
Halloween: My favorite holiday because i love candy and i love costumes and scaring people and haunted houses...awesome.
Valentines Day: what can I say, I am a stickler for getting my wife chocolates, jewelry, flowers, and giant greeting cards on valentines to share my love.
St. Patricks Day: Though I understand
@JFizzleRaider argument, I'm Irish and I love a day about being Irish and getting drunk ugly.
April Fools Day: pranks are fun. A day full of them is funner
Presidents Day: Nothing like A day off of work and tons of car and matress sales to honor our presidents. But really, I actually barbeque and do presidential trivia.
MLK Day: We wouldn't be where we are today as a society without MLK. He gave his life in the fight for equality of African Americans. Give the man a day.
Memorial, Veterans Day: Two days teo honor our soilders fallen and alive. I'm all for it. We need to take better care of them though, a day isnt enough.
Also, markers for the beginning and end of summer when the pools are open. Plus Barbecue, Barbecue, Barbecue
I know most holidays are just another way to get americans to spend money, but I'm a sucker.
