What a wonderful Thanksgiving! My twin sister arrived from Abu Dhabi just before dinner was served, and will be here to celebrate our birthday today - the first time in over 15 years we've been together on our birthday. Life is good! I hope you all had a great turkey day and weekend too.
Holiday events are in full swing, and many of those listed below (especially the weekend events) occur on multiple days, so make sure you click through to the Events Calendar if you're looking for something on a particular day - there's always much more going on than can be listed here. Another good idea is to click through the Ongoing Activities Section to find museums, nature centers, indoor play areas, bowling alleys and much more.
Tired of turkey and too busy to cook? Take the kids out to eat - but check our Kids Eat Free Calendar first, so you know where the deals are. Remember, members can sort all search results, including calendar results, by distance from their homes!
