Tips & Tricks #14

Each year the Macy's Thanksgiving parade starts at 9am and ends at 12pm.

During Thanksgiving....

On Thursday woke up before 9am to watch the Macy's thanksgiving parade, while at the same time made mash potatoes with my brother. By around 12 relatives had started coming over. then later around 1pm went to pick up some cousins and grandparents to take over my house. the rest of the day played around with cousins, eat, made a short up a short video, and it about ended at 2am. overall it wasn't like a thanksgiving dinner, but a party since we already started eating in early afternoon.
