thanksgiving parade {tear}







I love Thanksgiving. I have no shame when I say that I watch the Thanksgiving Day Parade in it's entirety, drinking countless cups of coffee and hanging on Matt Lauer's every word. There's something about it that seems magical to me. I remember when I was younger and my parents used to take me on the train into the city where we'd freeze our butts off on the sidewalk. We'd go into some no name cafe every 15 minutes and buy another hot chocolate, and at about 10:00 my sisters would start cry about how cold they were. Once we even had spiderman fall on us, it was awesome.

So every year when I watch the parade on tv, I remember those times when we actually went, and I think about how much I love NYC. It's a ritual I haven't broken ever before, but this year I won't be able to watch it. I'll be working all day serving other people their turkey. Lame. So I thought today I'd share some photos of the parade to lift my spirits and get you all excited. Happy day before Thanksgiving!
