Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Grayson and I woke up early to try to catch a glimpse of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade from our apartment window. We live on Roosevelt Island and our apartment is just across the East River parallel to about 73rd street. The parade was to begin around 76th st but it was on Central Park West. They are expecting around 2 million people today for the parade so there is no way I am schlepping my 14 month old son out there. Maybe when he gets older. We watched it on tv as we ate our Thanksgiving Day bagels and bananas for breakfast. Saving room for turkey later on today. I hope you have a wonderful day, whatever you decide to do or whoever you spend it with.

We are going to a restaurant with our friends. We all have kids and small apartments so it makes sense to go to a restaurant. We are looking forward to eating turkey dinner with our friends. We sure will miss our family and friends in sunny Florida.

Here is a vintage photo of Felix the Cat in the Macy's Parade. I am a huge Felix the Cat fan if you didn't already know.
