Confession - I never got around to decorating for Halloween. I actually just pulled out some fall decorations this weekend but have been thinking maybe I should start decorating for Christmas so it doesn't have the same fate. I mean I've already watched several Hallmark movies so I'm halfway there, right!? Besides I always feel the Holiday season goes by too fast and this would just prolong it.
It seems like the rest of the world is way ahead between the stores, my facebook feed and all the events starting this weekend - like the saying goes, If you can't beat 'em, join 'em! No matter how or when you celebrate the upcoming Holiday's there is plenty of fun to get into the next couple months and we're making it easy for you to find them all!
I'll be updating this list each week all season long!
We do our best to keep our information as accurate as possible, however, it's always best to call or visit the site ahead before heading out as times, prices and weather can change without notice! Do you have a event to add to the list, submit it here!
