Now that we're up and running, (Still so excited! squeeeeee!) let's head into the weekend!  Mid-February, when we're all getting a little antsy for spring, provides lots of exciting opportunities for family fun around the Willamette Valley.  So shake off your winter blues and take your children out for some foot-stomping, summer-dreaming, good-time activities!   

Kids and parents alike will enjoy the festivities at Mt. Angel Wurstfest.  Friday, Saturday, and Sunday your children will delight in the exotic costumes and fascinating wares.  Enjoy scrumptious German food and then spin your darlings into a frenzy to the music of Oregon Polka Beats. 

My favorite offering this weekend:  Old Time Fiddlers Valentine Themed Party at the Rickreall Grange!  Bring your little Valentine and shake a tailfeather to some lively bluegrass.  What I love about this activity is that your children will have a great time and wipe themselves out, perhaps offering Mom and Dad an opportunity for a little Valentine's romance this evening.

Sunday afternoon head down to Salem's Riverfront Carousel's Winterfest.  Kids will delight in unlimited carousel rides, crafts, face painting and games.  What a wonderful way for your family to wrap up a winter weekend in Salem!  

Shake off that winter and get your kids out!  I'd love to hear about your family's experiences.  And if you you have any events you'd like included on the calendar, email me here.  Have a wonderful weekend!
