The building housing the Portland Aquarium is going to be demolished next year. The aquarium will be closing business on President's Day, February 15, 2016. All of the animals will be rehomed to aquariums across the country while the aquarium looks for a new location.

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays! - Visit Storybook Lane in Forest Grove!
I hope you are having a wonderful holiday season. There are still lots of fun things to do until Christmas, and some things are open until New Year's as well if you are having trouble finding the time. Check out the Holiday Events Guide for more info.
I just found out about this fun event on Grant's Getaways, and wanted to share it with you. Storybook Lane is located at 4288 SW Bantam Ave Forest Grove, OR. They've been doing this for 80 years! It's Free!

They're only open until the 25th, but what a fun thing to do after the presents are open and you're done with dinner.

Don't write the letter from Santa in your own handwriting. Kids know their parents writing. That's how I found out.
