We got outside as much as we could this week and completed all of our WinterKids' (https://winterkids.org/) challenges. The theme this week was Family, and we celebrated being with our families with a Family Fun Night. It was an amazing sight to see so many families braving the cold to have some fun together outside! We had plenty of snow for sledding; light up toys; snow painting; face painting; a magical lighted story walk through the woods; and hot chocolate (provided by Aroma Joes).

Hopefully we can make this an annual event!
