shared by Marlo R. Beall, her sister
Although it's a little odd with Thanksgiving being early this year, it's one of our family's favorite holidays. We enjoy the restful time away from work and school, and also look forward to yummy Thanksgiving food - Ava likes ham, Cyn Cyn drenches everything in gravy, Andrew loves stuffing and I enjoy sweet potatoes.
Thanksgiving also reminds me of a few traditions that Cindy, my sisters and I shared throughout the years. We always liked watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, especially the big balloons. We also loved watching the classic Peanuts Thanksgiving Special; and more than once we considered having jelly beans, pretzels, toast and popcorn as part of our meal.
Our family has continued both the parade and Peanuts traditions since the girls were young, but have recently added watching Thanksgiving episodes of Friends as another fun tradition. Friends always reminds me of Cindy. The Thanksgiving episodes - especially the one when Rachel makes a trifle and the one with Brad Pitt - are fun to watch anytime of year, but even more so on Thanksgiving.
