There was that story last week about a plane that crash-landed on a golf course in Wisconsin. The plane was carrying over 50 shelter dogs. Luckily they were all okay and now some of them have already been adopted! The best part? Many of the people adopting are first responders who were at the scene saving them at the time.
What a sweet connection they all have made.

Andrew and Gianna have a nine-year-old daughter who is very good at gymnastics. They would like to send her to an elite gymnastics’ academy but it’s very expensive. Andrew says they should ask their family to not give her Christmas gifts this year, instead give them money towards the gymnastics academy.

South Norwalk always seemed to me like the perfect setting for a Christmas movie or winter wonderland. I lived there for a few years and always thought that. Now, they are doing exactly that with their first ever SONO Holiday Extravaganza this Sunday November 20th from 3pm-7pm. Seems like the perfect after party once you leave the Stamford Downtown parade.
Here is all the info on what’s happening:
