November 19 Grand Rapids Art Van Santa Parade

Saturday, November 19 at 12:00 noon is the Art Van Santa Parade in downtown Grand Rapids.  Get there EARLY and bring blankets.  I speak from experience… we went last year and got yelled at by an elf the whole time.  I even made a video about it for MomTV! Elves aside; this is a really fun parade, your kids will love it!

November 17 Ford Museum Tree Lighting

The Ab Nab Awen park area is one of my favorite spots in town.  The backdrop of the river, the Amway Grand, and the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum is stunning!  Every year the museum has a  holiday display of trees and twinkling lights, and there is even a  sing-along and refreshments.  It’s the sort of big city, small town event only Grand Rapids can pull off.  This year it’s Thursday, November 17 at 7:00 PM.
