Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, Thursday 9a.m. everywhere !!



Yay ! It's that time of year again ! We've had our Canadian Thanksgiving but I'm looking more forward to the U.S. Thanksgiving because of their yearly:
Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade

woohoo !!
Now don't get me wrong, I appreciate all Thanksgiving days, the turkey, the stuffing, the family and friends. But there's just something aboout having a parade too :)

It's only been in the last 3 years that I've decided to make the Macy's Parade my own personal tradition. My dear husband and son are always at work/school and I'm home working on art creations for my Etsy shop. But now I take that day 'off' and get ready for Christmas --by watching the parade. Before this special day I don't think much about decorating, baking, etc...until after the parade, and then I'm all in that Christmas spirit :)

So for this year's parade I'm whipping up some homemade hot chocolate and maybe even some kind of cookie. After the parade I may head downstairs and start pulling out the Christmas decorations. Ooh it's making me all wiggly.

Drop me a line if you too will be enjoying this event. I wish I was right there for it. Just something about New York.

For our area ( Vancouver Island british Columbia ) you'll be watching either channel 14 (Kiro on CBS) or channel 18 (King NBC)

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving U.S.A ! Many blessings for all of you xoooo
