Thanksgiving Day we headed to downtown Houston and watched the HEB Thanksgiving Day Parade. We were running late, so we found a little spot in a puddle and sat and waited and waited and waited. Here are the kids waiting. Luckily, they didn't get too impatient.
You see a little bit of everything in this parade. There were balloons like Macy's has in New York.
There's also lots of local bands and drill teams, fire trucks and Shriners. Jackson just loved the little cars!
The local sports teams were represented also. The Aeros cheerleaders were handing out tickets and we got 4 tickets to one of the games. How cool is that!?!?! Then, on the way home, I asked Jackson what his favorite part was and it was these guys.
I couldn't help but wonder if these guys do this as a hobby... Oh well, the kids loved it. The parade was concluded with the Big Man himself!
We continued the day at Aunt Carla's for a super yummy Thanksgiving feast. What a fun beginning to a great Thanksgiving Day!
Speaking of parades... Jordan and Kenny went to see the EC Christmas parade last week and loved it. Jack couldn't go, but we won't talk about that. Jordan's favorite part... Santa on the firetruck, of course!
