We are going to the Macy's Day Parade and my 14 year old asked about them and I told her we will make them before we leave for New York.

I like to wake up EARLY Thanksgiving morning and go in search of newspapers for the Black Friday ads and then lay them all out in the living room and plan my Friday.

My daughter likes watching the Dog Show after the parade.
