Just as you’re recovering from Halloweekend, Thanksgiving Eve comes flying around the corner. While Thanksgiving is always a wholesome holiday moment with family, Thanksgiving Eve is the perfect night to go out in your hometown and have a good time with friends you haven’t seen all semester. New drinking game (if you’re over 21, of course): Take a shot every time you see your arch nemesis from high school.
Whether you’ll be having a wholesome or messy Thanksgiving Eve, it’s all about balance. And like every other holiday season, it’s time to prepare for the flood of Thanksgiving Eve Instagram photos that are about to hit your feed — including yours, bestie! Between catching up with your friends, avoiding the high school mean girls, and preparing for the best meal of the year, the last thing you need to be worrying about on Thanksgiving Eve is the perfect Instagram caption. Here are a few for you to steal so you can focus on more important things, like a potential hometown hookup.
