Warm Heart Wednesday ~~ No. 003 ~~ We visited the Houston Thanksgiving Day Parade
Our family likes to watch parades. It warms our hearts.
Watching may warm yours too.
On Thanksgiving Day Mrs. Jim, KP, and I woke up early and went to the Houston Thanksgiving Parade. This was by a request, by popular demand, of KP as we had attended last year also.
Some of the Houston Rockets were there, J.J. Watt of the Houston Texans was the Grand Marshall, our Channel 11 weather team had a float, the mayor and some city counsel members, and candidates for office were the dignitaries. Several high school bands, dancing studio groups, lots of clowns, a few old cars and trucks, and Santa were all present in abundance.
These are a several of my pictures, click on any to see it larger.

It looks like you found a good spot to watch the parade. I've never gone because I thought it was real crowded. I remember someone telling me years ago that she'd never go again because the crowd was three and four people deep and it was difficult to see. You got some great pictures and Thanksgiving dinner looked good! Enjoyed seeing your family.
What a fun time you all had! I love a good parade. But with 200,000 plus attending the Parade of Lights in downtown Denver tonight and last night, we pass. Too much conflict. We will look at the lights when the crowds quiet down. Sounds like your Thanksgiving Day feast was quite wonderful. Always a pleasure to see what you and yours are up to. Take care and enjoy the weekend.
What a fun thing to do. I've not been to a parade in years.
Your Thanksgiving dinner looked fabulous.
Have a terrific day. ☺

Sounds and looks you three had a wonderful time. Great photos. I think we have 7 parades in our small city every year. Several more around the county. I like waving at the participants. :-)

What a wonderful parade. Of course, in my part of the world, you have to bundle up in winter coats for Thanksgiving parades most times.
