Technically, Presidents' Day is this Monday. It is also the day in which we celebrate George Washington's birthday. Although originally only for Washington, Abraham Lincoln's birthday is also in February and the day has developed into a day where we celebrate all the presidents!
With the recent snow storms and the amount of stress with shoveling said snow, you and your family might be in need of some activity away from home.
