Your TWO Week Macaroni!

Your Resource for Family Fun Events in Columbus!

December 17, 2012

It's hard to believe that Christmas is only a week away. I don't know about you, but I'm still a little in denial as I have so much to do! As far as finding fun events though, we have you covered. You'll actually find TWO WEEKS worth of fun events in this newsletter, as we are going to take a little time off with our family for the holidays. We've scoured all of our sources and the web to find everything fun going on, but know that if we happen to find any new events, we will add them to our CALENDAR, add them to our on-line Newsletter and also tell you on FACEBOOK as we don't want you to miss anything! So, don't forget to check those places too.

There is ONE MORE DAY to Win a family 4-Pack to COSI where you can see their special LEGO Castle Adventure exhibit!!  The giveaway ends tomorrow, Tuesday, Dec. 18th. Enter to win HEREPerfect for a fun day during holiday break, or you can save for later {tickets are good through 9/30/13}.

Congratulations to readers Amy V, Kristen P, Paula and Lani who each won $20 credit to buy gifts from our Local Holiday Gift Guide and the to Becky, Michelle and Sarah the winners of the family 4-packs to the Advance Auto Parts Monster Jam!  There's still time to get some GREAT gifts!

We would like to take a moment to give our hearts, thoughts and prayers to all those in Newtown, CT.  As parents, our hearts break and grieve with them.  If you are looking for ways to talk to your children, we have been given several helpful websites from our schools and professionals which we used too: www.nasponline.org, www.nctsnet.org, pbskids.org, huffingtonpost.com.


There are some daily reoccurring holiday events that we are not including in the newsletter listing. However, you can see these in the CALENDAR listed by day. And of course, any last minute finds or changes to events we will post on FACEBOOK, so be sure to "like" us there.

Thank you for sharing us with your friends, co-workers, mommy groups and family! We really appreciate it!  When you visit one of the events in our newsletter, please tell them NE Columbus Macaroni Kid sent you! Thank you for all your support!

Hold your kids and family members close and relish in their love.  Have a wonderful holiday break with your kids, and may all your holidays be safe, fabulous and full of joy, fun and laughter! 

Your Macaroni Moms,
Wendy and Jen
