December 2018

We went to a tree lighting and "Walk With Santa" at the fitness center.  The "Walk With Santa" included walking around the park looking at different blow-up decorations.  It concluded inside with a chance to talk to Santa and a free cookie and hot chocolate, as well as a candy cane hunt and other activities.
