Hi Friends,
Next time you travel or gather with your family, I strongly encourage you to:
- enjoy the small moments,
- be silly,
- have fun,
- reminisce and tell stories,
- laugh a lot,
- accept each other for who they are,
- and take lots of pictures.
My hubby, daughter, and I went to Florida last weekend for a family wedding. We followed the above advice and had a fantastic time. It's amazing how staying positive and embracing the small, meaningful moments can re-energize you and pull your family closer together. This will be a trip we never forget.
MacKID Annapolis Events and Monthly Meet Ups
Sadly, I had to cancel our Holiday Extravaganza due to low ticket sales. I want to thank those businesses and individuals that offered to help out. Caliente Grill, Pigtails and Crewcuts Annapolis, Artworks Studio, Kevin's Hauling, Mosquito Hunters, Liz Montaner & Crew with Coldwell Banker Realty, and Lori Schramek with Fairway Independent Mortgage Company.
I am already planning events for next year and I'd love your input. How do you feel about a Monthly MacKID Meetup? We meet at a kid friendly business during the day for an hour. The kids participate in a program or play and the moms/caregivers are able to get to connect and get to know each other. Email me with your thoughts, suggestions, places you'd like to meet up,...
Holiday Festivities Guide
I recently added more items to the Holiday Festivities Guide and the MacKID Annapolis calendar. The guide has over 225 listings for events such as light displays, live entertainment, festivals, Santa visits, holiday shopping experiences, and more. More events are added as I find them.
Annapolis Musical Theater Company Giveaway
The Winter Camp is coming up soon, Dec. 26-30. Enter the AMTC Giveaway by Dec. 14th at 10AM to win one of 4 - $100 coupons to use for the camp. When my daughter was in middle school she participated in the Annapolis Musical Theater program for two years, learned a lot, and loved the experience. If your child loves dancing and singing and is available Dec. 26-30, this would make a fantastic present. The camp will be performing The Grinch!
Business Directory
It's not too late to have your business or organization listed in the Macaroni KID Annapolis Business Directory for one year for only $20.23. The regular rate for 2023 is $145. Fill out this FORM with the information you would like in the directory. Email a few 960 x 960px images and I will be in touch soon.
Until next week ... Peace, Love and Macaroni!
