As the crisp, brown leafs migrated through the streets of Main Street USA, accompanied by the slightly chilled wind, the time of Thanksgiving had once again arrived. The smell of freshly cooked turkey filled the air as family after family sat down together at their tables, giving thanks for all the wonderful things they had in life and giving blessing to those who were less fortunate.

And there was no better place on Earth that was more exemplary of this practice of giving than the Magic Kingdom and no one appreciated the spirit of this holiday more than Mickey Mouse. In fact, on this day, Mickey Mouse, along with Minnie, Goofy, Donald, and Daisy, were having a party to celebrate and they had invited everyone in the kingdom to join in the festivities. And this party was to take place in none other than Cinderella Castle.

Suffice to say, Mickey and friends were really in the spirit of the holiday as Mickey, Donald, and Goofy were garbed up in their pilgrim attire while Minnie and Daisy sported Indian attire.

In the center of the ballroom stood a large table lined with a brown tablecloth decorated with leafs. On top of the table were all the essential thing needed for a Thanksgiving feast; mashed potatoes, gravy, sweet potatoes, cranberries, and of course, a big, golden brown turkey. Everything you could ask for was right here.

And spread through the ballroom were other tables with rows of chairs that would seat the many guests that were soon to arrive with a candelabra seated in the middle a each.

With a clipboard in hand, Mickey did a quick check on all the food for the party as Donald, Goofy, and Daisy were finished with the last table.

"OK, let's see.

Cranberries: check!

Mashed potatoes: check!

Sweet potatoes: check!" he said.

"One potato, two potato, three potato, four, a-hyuck!" Goofy said.

After Mickey finished checking off the list, Cinderella came in, with a pie in hand, and placed it on the table.

"Hey, Cinderella. Whatcha got there?" asked Mickey.

"Oh just a little something for the feast. It's a banana cream pie," Cinderella said.

"It looks delicious! Thanks again for letting us have the castle for the party," said Mickey.

"My pleasure, Mickey. I'm just glad that everyone in the Magic Kingdom can get together for the Thanksgiving holiday," Cinderella said as Minnie walked in.

Minnie placed what looked like a soufflé on the table. It's aroma entranced Mickey.

"Mmmm, that smells great, Minnie," Mickey said.

"Thanks," Minnie said with a giggle. "It's my special cheese soufflé. I made it for the party."

Minnie and Gus the Goose were hard at work for hours making the Thanksgiving feast. But given Gus' big appetite, Mickey was of course concerned that Gus would eat all the food, which was why he asked Minnie to help out with the dinner. Still, he couldn't be sure that Gus wouldn't try to eat it all later on. But Minnie told him that she had taken 'special precautions' to make sure that didn't happen. As it turned out, those 'special precautions' were tying Gus up in chains, gagging him, and throwing him in a closet.

"I'm sure Jaq and Gus Gus will love it," said Cinderella.

Suddenly, Chip and Dale popped onto the table.

"Yeah, but better keep it away from Monterey Jack," said Chip.

"Yeah, cause if he gets his hand on it, it'll be gone faster than you can say, 'Bob's your uncle'," said Dale.

"Cinderella, I didn't know you had a uncle named Bob," Goofy said.

"That's just a saying, ya big palooka!" Donald said.

Cinderella just chuckled before Ludwig walked in, carrying a cart with a large bowl of a brown liquid on it.

"Greeting, friends! I bring a special treat for Thanksgiving Day! Apple Cider soda! Made with some very 'special' ingredients," said Ludwig.

"Now Ludwig, I thought we agreed, no experimenting on Thanksgiving," said Minnie.

Ludwig assured her that he hadn't done anything funny to the cider except add some extra fizz to it. But just in case, she had the phone with the 911 number and fire department ready to call.

In addition to providing a drink for the party, Ludwig was also assigned to help make the floats for the Thanksgiving parade. Mickey walked with Drake out to the back of the castle to see how the floats were coming along. The parade was set to take place after the party and the citizens of Main Street were excited to be taking place in it.

Meanwhile, Minnie was curious as to what her other friends had made for the holiday.

Donald presented what he had prepared first. "I made some orange custard sponge cake," he said.

"I made some fried chicken," said Goofy.

"We have stuffing!" said Chip.

"With almonds and walnuts!" said Dale.

"Mmmm, mmm!" they both said.

Mickey and Ludwig returned and Mickey assured that despite some, 'slight accidents,' the parade was ready to go.

Minnie told Mickey of what Donald, Goofy, and Chip and Dale had brought for the party.

"As for me, I have my famous green bean casserole," said Daisy.

"I've never heard of it," said Mickey.

"Me either," said Goofy.

"Doesn't ring a bell," said Minnie.

"I hate that stuff!" said Donald to which Daisy responded by bonking him on the head.

Nonetheless, it seemed that everything was in order for the party. The food was prepared and the invitations had been sent, now all they needed to do what wait for the guests to arrive. But before that, Goofy had something to show to the rest of the gang as called out for his son, Max.

"Come on out, Maxie!" Goofy called.

"I'm not coming out," said Max.

Goofy insisted on Max coming out, but he refused, saying that he looked ridiculous, thereby implying that Goofy had made him wear something. But Goofy scurried over and forced Max into the open, revealing him to be wearing a turkey costume.

Donald blurted out in laughter.

"Donald! Stop that! That is not...funny," Daisy said, holding back her laughter before she took another look at Max. "Oh who am I kidding?! It is!"

Mickey and Minnie slightly giggled.

"Dad, this is embarrassing!" said Max.

"Oh, don't be silly, Max! You'll be the best looking turkey at the party.

"Good, then maybe someone will cook me and put an end to me misery," said Max.

Suddenly, Pete came storming in, wearing a female pilgrim outfit. "You think you got it bad?! Look at me! Mouse, you told me there was one more pilgrim costume left!" he bellowed.

"Oops, my bad," Mickey said chuckling under his breath.

Cinderella walked to Max. "Now stop it, you guys. It's not nice to laugh at someone like that. Max, I think you look cute," she said, stroking her finger across his chin.

Max blushed with hearts in his eyes and hovered in the air.

Pete looked on disgusted. "Oh, stuff me like a turkey," he said.

Just then, there was a knocking at the door. The first of the guests had arrived which meant that the party was soon to begin. Mickey went to answer the door after telling Minnie to light the candles. So no, with everything ready, Mickey and the gang were set to begin their Thanksgiving party.
