Happy New Year + Hello TWENTY-FIFTEEN!
Well, the holidays came and they went as quickly as I expected them to. It seems like the holiday season has a funny way of sneaking up on me year after year. When will I ever truly get it together?! Needless to say a quiet and chilly winter season is now upon us. The kids saw the snow and begged to play outside in the single digit temps?!?! Are they crazy?!?! They will soon find out what too cold to go outside means. Thanks to our lovely Michigan weather, you never know what tomorrow is going to bring…
Stay bundled up and don’t forget to go out and enjoy the things happening across Metro-Detroit this cold winter season. Here is a sprinkling of some Weekend Happenings {in and around Detroit} at a glance for you!!!
Plymouth Ice Festival
This is one of my favorites, it brings back childhood memories of walking with my friends bundled head to toe and sipping on hot cocoa. It is sure to become a family favorite with the kids. Dueling chainsaws and live demonstrations are all part of the fun.
