Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade Performers Announced

This list is loaded with incredible talent, but are we surprised? It's the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade after all.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy Halloween, but this time of year is where my heart truly lights up. I love the countdown to the holidays. The anticipation combined with the changing weather makes me super chipper. Yep, I'm happy enough to use a phrase like "super chipper."

One tradition in my family is to have the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on the television as we put the finishing touches on our Thanksgiving meal. The boys will be out frying turkeys in the driveway, the girls will be in the kitchen whipping up the sides. Pour the wine and my heart begins to sing.

The parade has been going on for over 90 years now. This year's parade performers have been announced. Musical guests for 2017 will be:

Sabrina Carpenter

And don't be surprised if more are announced.
