I'm all in for Thanksgiving - have hosted the family for years. Decoration is minimal, but I start kitchen preparation as early as Monday and go all out on the food front.
I've grown completely indifferent to Christmas and its decor. We travel to visit family for Christmas briefly, so whatever fall/winter adjustments that are made at home for Thanksgiving are up for the season.
I hadn't thought about the Native American perspective on Thanksgiving - but I love it because it's non-religious and celebrates gratefulness and getting together with people you care about. I gather its history may have a few more wrinkles, but that's what it means to me.
