Thanksgiving, part 3 - the Macy's Parade

The night before Thanksgiving, we tried to go see them blow up the parade balloons. We were a little late getting Central Park but everyone else wasn't - it was PACKED. What a bummer. As Julia said, "Daddy, I can't see Snoopy!"

When it came time for Thanksgiving day - we were lucky that NYC is pretty easy to get around, and that Thea Chris could watch Julia and Grace (since it was a little too col for them). Eventually, it did warm up some - especially in the sun.
In any case, we hustled to find a good spot on the upper West Side before the really big crowds showed up. When the parade started, it was floats for as far the eye could see! Sophia had a great view - she even got to see Snoopy!
I'm not sure who had more fun - Sophia or Mommy - they were both smiling so much. It really was a great time!
