☃️❄️ Weekly Publisher Note ~ December 6-12, 2023

By Jodi Lorence, Macaroni Kid Publisher December 5, 2023

Hello Friends,

Have you fallen into the holiday spirit? With the bit of snow we got this week it was beautiful to see the trees covered with the glistening snow and gave a hint that Christmas will be here before we know it. 

There are SO many events for you and your family and friends to attend that it is hard not to get in that festive holiday spirit. Be sure to check out our events calendar and all the guides I have put together for you to have a place to use as a resource when trying to find an event or activity to attend. I am adding events daily so be sure to check back often. 

Have a wonderful and joyous week,

Jodi ☃️


“From home to home, and heart to heart, from one place to another,

The warmth and joy of Christmas, brings us closer to each other.”
