This is only my third one ever, no make that my fourth, but I think Thanksgiving might be my newest favourite holiday. I love that it’s on a Thursday so there’s a short working week, I love that Black Friday is the day after and everyone runs out to the sales, I love that after all the fun there’s still a weekend of relaxation making it a nice long holiday, and above all else I *LOVE* that when all the fun is over, there’s STILL THE EXCITEMENT CHRISTMAS TO COME! I love Christmas of course, but once Christmas Day is over with, the whole of Christmas is too…
This year we stayed local and went to visit friends in the city for a fabulous home-cooked dinner, *fabulous* being the word.
Turkey comas merged into deep sleep, and deep sleep led us into morning in San Francisco.
Morning football and morning play took us to a lazy late lunch in the mid afternoon.
And from lunch we went to Union Square where we waited in the cold…
…for this…
…to become THIS!
Followed by a trip around the sales (and a new outfit for Baby Peach), ending up on the seventh floor of Macys standing in line to meet Father Christmas.
All of that and there was still the weekend to go.
Yes, I love Thanksgiving.

Beautiful photos- it looks like you had a lovely time! I loved the way you talked about the dates falling as they do, it made me think about it for a while. I agree! It’s so nice to have Christmas to look forward to now, after the excitement of Thanksgiving. xx
