Winter Fest Fun



WINTER FEST 2013


 Last weekend was Winter Fest in my town!  :) Yes even in the freezing weather of Wisconsin we can find fun outside!  :) It started out on Friday evening with FIREWORKS.  I think that was the first time I have ever watched fireworks in the winter.  It was a bit chilly but it was worth it and we had a great view of the show.  :)

The next day there were several activities planned out throughout the down town area.  We started out doing some mini golf, yes in the snow!  We actually used a tennis ball instead of a golf ball since there were snow obstacles.  :) My daughter did a great job and I let my lil guy kick the ball and he did better kicking them me swinging.  

After the golfing fun we headed to the main area where they made a huge snow sculpture and slide.  My daughter wanted to keep going down the slide since it was so FUN.  My lil guy was to cold to even want to try the slide.  



There were carriage rides, chili cook-off, free hot cocoa and apple cider, Ice sculpting  free ice skating, cookie decorating, and so much more.  

Sadly my lil guy only lasted about an hour in the cold so we headed home to take a long nap and warm up.  :)


Does your town do any fun winter activities?

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Common Mistakes Made When Writing a Will

  Writing a will should, by all means, be a simple thing. You want to make sure that your assets are being left to your loved ones and that your final wishes are being fulfilled. Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...
