So Much To Be Thankful For

Olin lived out one of my childhood dreams this morning when we went to see the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.  Josh and I went several years ago when we first moved to NYC and it was great then, but today it was about a million times better as we watched Olin's face light up with each passing balloon and float.

Other highlights of the day included a long walk in Central Park to enjoy the beautiful weather, good eating including a mid morning snack of David Eyre pancakes with lingonberry preserves, matching shirts worn by Josh and Olin (at Olin's request and total delight), and a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner of side dishes (Olin even helped!) - the turkey took way longer than expected and Josh just now pulled it out of the oven at nearly 9pm.  Oops, I guess we will know better for next year!

Josh always says that we have an embarrassment of riches and days like today remind me of just how right he is.  We are so thankful to have all of you in our lives and hope that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

We are off to Vermont tomorrow for a little escape from the city!
