Thanksgiving Traditions at Oma's & Papa's

As always, our Thanksgiving morning started with the complete and total viewing of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade with the family. For us, the grand entrance of Santa at the end of the parade truly begins the Christmas season!

And Leia Rose made a really nice Thanksgiving picture for Oma and Papa complete with a turkey, corn, and an Indian "HED BEND" (headband)! : ) It says, "Happy Thanksgiving," of course. : )
And at the end of the parade, Daddy carried out his very special Thanksgiving tradition of setting up the "Rudolph Guys" in a parade for the girls to find. They were SO excited! They haven't seen these favorite toys for a whole year!
And then Daddy did a puppet show of the ENTIRE rudolph story, using the Rudolph Guys. The girls LOVED it!!!

What a special Daddy!

But when it came to watching the real story of Rudolph, Leia Rose was STILL a bit scared of Bumble (the snow monster), even though she said she wasn't.
