I have two tables reports and holidays.

reports: (username varchar(30),activity varchar(30),hours int(3),report_date date)

holidays: (holiday_name varchar(30), holiday_date date)

select * from reports gives

+----------+-----------+---------+------------+  
| username |  activity |  hours  |   date     |
+----------+-----------+---------+------------+  
| prasoon  |   testing |    3    | 2009-01-01 |
| prasoon  |   coding  |    4    | 2009-01-03 |  
| prasoon  |  designing|    2    | 2009-01-04 |
| prasoon  |   coding  |    4    | 2009-01-06 |
+----------+-----------+---------+------------+

select * from holidays gives

+--------------+---------------+  
| holiday_name |  holiday_date |
+--------------+---------------+ 
| Diwali       |   2009-01-02  |
| Holi         |   2009-01-05  |  
+--------------+---------------+

Is there any way by which I can output the following?

+-------------+-----------+---------+-------------------+  
| date        |  activity |  hours  |  holiday_name     |
+-------------+-----------+---------+-------------------+  
| 2009-01-01  |  testing  |    3    |                   |
| 2009-01-02  |           |         |     Diwali        |  
| 2009-01-03  |  coding   |    4    |                   |
| 2009-01-04  |  designing|    2    |                   |
| 2009-01-05  |           |         |      Holi         |
| 2009-01-06  |  coding   |    4    |                   |
