This will be our 5th Thanksgiving at the beach. Mr BB, his daughter and I needed to start our own traditions. We do Christmas all over Alabama. I will drive down either Tuesday night or Wednesday morning. Mr. BB will work part of the day and he and his daughter will fly into Destin.
We get up early, watch the Macy's parade and put up the Christmas tree. Mr BB's daughter had never watched the parade before...
, I grew up watching every Thanksgiving. His daughter and I started making ornaments for it our first year. We used nothing but starfish, huge shells of all kinds, and put glitter (what else) and pearls on them. We have collected many beachy ornaments over the years from our travels.
We do lunch at our house (yes! I cook) turkey, dressing, casseroles, broccolli salad, pea salad, deviled eggs (brought by a friend) along with her red velvet cake! Mr. BB took half of it back to the clinic last year, to share with everyone else and it somehow never left his office! He ate over half of a red velvet cake in just a couple of days.:shock: Then we do dinner with friends down the street (remember Maunsel that put his aunts painting up at Cureleans) ....then....go to Grandma Dorothy's every Thanksgiving night for coffee and dessert:shock: Not sure where we will put all that food!
Painting ornaments on Friday, tree lighting at Rosemary Beach that night. Then...the Seaside Parade on Sunday...yes! we are all in it:clap_1: talked Beachmom and her crew into it too :clap_1: Got lot's of throws today in the mail, yep, I think it is mardi gras or something. "Throw me somethin mister!"
Saturday night not sure yet, Cureleans has lot's of entertainment that night. Bobby J's girls are playing as are many others. Not sure what night we will work in DeFuniak Springs lights
Hope everyone's Thanksgiving is full of friends and family. You know...that warm wonderful feeling you get this time of year. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
