We’re not going to get too ahead of ourselves here but we know you’re thinking about things like turkey, trees and family right now
Families can choose from many events and activities happening this weekend in Champaign-Urbana
We can hear it just beneath the surface – holiday buzz. Say all you want about not getting into Christmas-mode until after Thanksgiving, but here is the reality. The next six weeks of life are a BLUR for families with children and we know you’re beginning to plan. Are you enlisting the help of some Champaign-Urbana area restaurants and bakeries to put together your holiday meals this year? Have you started holiday shopping? And (gasp!) maybe even penciling a few holiday activities you don’t want to miss into your calendar? Hang with us every step of the way these next several weeks as we navigate the holiday season together!
