Leesa, How nice Lake Forrest continues to have fun events right through the holidays. I love these highlights people do of their towns...and need to start one myself :) It's a wonderful way for people to see you are truly the expert of your area.
Leesa - Family Holiday movie night sounds the best to me! They should change the name however. Parent sanity hour!
Leesa ( I like the new pic!) The 5 k looks like a great family event. Nothing like walking, jogging ot running with your friends family. These are moments that they will keep for ever.
Carole - It is SO easy to do highlights here in Wake Forest - so much going on!
Nevin - tee hee - too true!
Lloyd - The 5k is wildly popular here! I'll just take the couch and a good football game, though. Thanks for the compliment as well.....
