Thanksgiving Day Table Nap


Photo-A-Day #3520

The Christmas Farm Inn is such a wonderful place. We woke up to a beautiful view to the White Mountains in the distance and snow all around. The nice thing about going on the trip through the snow was to wake up to all new snow on the ground. It was so beautiful. We were up early because Andrew was up early. I got up with him and let him watch a few things on the iPad. I watched some things on my tablet as we woke up into the day.

Once Allison and Eva were up we got dressed to go to have breakfast. Breakfast was included in our stay and it was delicious. The main building has a common room and a quaint dining room.

I still watch the parade a bit with the kids and look forward to seeing many of my favorite balloons. I can’t wait to see Eruptor join those ranks. If you can’t wait for Thursday’s broadcast at 9:00am on NBC to see Eruptor then you are in luck. Here is a preview video of the balloon and how it was designed.

Here are some more details about the Eruptor float and some more photos of the promotional replica of the Eruptor Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade Balloon that I was sent. Oh and some other fun information including the release date of one of the first Skylanders Trap Team themed characters – Winterfest Lob-Star! I want to see him team up with Jolly Bumble Blast.
