Celebs share what they are grateful for!
Thanksgiving is one of the most wholesome times of the year, and it is lovely to offer thanks for all the great things you have. The festivities kicked in full force this year after over a year and a half of people having to stay away from their families and had to put a hole on the celebratory dinner night. Now that the vaccines have been administered to a large number of people, and the pandemic is finally under control, people have taken to meeting their families and spending the holiday season with them.
So, in a year when we actually have so much to be grateful for as we made out of a deadly global pandemic, it is nice to count blessings and pay respect to the people with the support of whom it was possible to leave behind the dreaded year!
Hence, on a similar note, celebrities had taken to planning their perfect Thanksgiving dinner for Turkey Day. Leaving behind the year when the Thanksgiving parade had no viewers at all, this year's celebrations were no short of extraordinary and featured a mass of spectators wishing to catch up on the holiday spirit.
Celebrities like Hoda Kotb, Savannah Guthrie, and many others took part in the celebratory parade this week on Thursday, November 25.
Guthrie, aged 49, shared a still from the legendary Turkey Day parade and shared that she was grateful for getting to spend another year with Kotb and Al Roker. The American Broadcaster shared, “Thankful to spend thanksgiving with these two! TEN years with Macy's Parade — time really does fly when you’re having fun!”
The TV host who is usually seen chatting up celebs on The Today With Hoda and Jenna cohost, aged 57, shared her own memorable picture from the day where she showed images from the epic New York City Thanksgiving parade. The post read, “@macys we loved every second of it! NYC is BACK!!! Happy Thanksgiving ❤️.”
Guthrie shared another post for the day, this time appreciating her gal pal and coworker from back in the day, Jenna Bush Hager, who recently passed the 40 year age mark. The Thanksgiving appreciation post for Jenna read, “Thankful always but doubly so today for this sparkler of a human.” The picture showed the two friends together, smiling ear to ear, as Guthrie wrote, “Happy 40th bday @jennabhager 🥰.”
For Witney Carson, the day of gratefulness was spent marveling over her son, aged 10 months, who got to celebrate his first-ever Thanksgiving. Carson shares Leo with her husband Carson McAllister, and the professional dancer, aged 28, posted an array of pictures featuring their adorable son.
