Is this the reason why Americans love their country so much?

Today I was on a walk with my sister and my dog and my sister sounded really upset. So I asked her what is wrong and she said that it is haloween and we don't have a pumpkin or any other haloween decoration. It was a really awkward situation because I didn't know it is was haloween today. And than I began thinking how is that even possible? I mean, It is such a great day! I sill remember the times in elementary school when we would have a haloween party but now that I am in high school and I didn't have a haloween party in years I have really forgoten how exciting this day was. But this is simply not possible in America. How could you forget it is haloween in america when the kids prepare for this day for weeks? And than at the haloween night they go make that trick-or-treat thing and they get candy? You just cant overlook that. But here in Europe you don't have any of that. We know about haloween just becouse kids watch the Disney Channel and see all those rituals of cuting pumpkins ad decorating the houses and stuff. But as we get older we siply forget about that nice little holiday of yours. And now I can get to the main subject and that is why Americans love their county so much. Is it because they have a large army that can protect them? Is it because they have freedom? Or is it because they have such nice celebrations like Haloween, st. Patrick's day, Thanksgiving or Independence day? Could americans even live without theese traditions? These days are greatly celebrated and they bring the people together. They make Americans remember the great history of their nation. Theese holidays are the reason americans love their country! Of course that the great army and freedom they have, but without theese holidays they would have the mindset of some european countries. You cant even imagine how many people want to immigrate to another countries. It is a crushing majority really... From what I have read and seen, americans don't have the need to immigrate. It is because they feel proud of the place they call home. And yes, with this I mean to say that I am not proud of my country. I am not saying that I don't like it because I do, but proud? Proud of what? Maybe of the nice forests and mountains but all the rest is just boring. We don't celebrate like the americans do. When we have some kind of "celebration" all people sit home and enjoy the day off. This is our culture... And the american traditions are one of the main things I envy.
