WHAT WE DID: DECEMBER 28TH 2015

will milne December 28, 2015

The week in between Christmas and New Year's is pensive in nature by default, but when you have neighboring towns that have suffered tornado damage on the day after Christmas, it becomes even more so. If you're in a position to help, you can go to redcross.org or text "REDCROSS" to 90999 to automatically donate $10.

You'll see signs of the strange weather Denton experienced last week in the images below. What We Did is our weekly roundup of photos that WDDI staff and readers have taken over the past seven days. We've got 18 of our favorite images from the past week in Denton, TX below.

If you'd like to be included in What We Did, tag your images with #WDDI on Instagram, and check back here next Monday. As always, we're limited in the photos we can post, but we encourage you to search the hashtag #WDDI and check out all of the other awesome photos that have been tagged with #WDDI.

will milne December 23, 2015

Merry Christmas eve eve, y’all! The town seems to have grown a little quieter over the last few days with students going home for the Holiday’s, but we’ve been busy compiling events to keep you out and about and enjoying every moment of beautiful Denton that you possibly can! (I need some wine with that cheese). Join us in relaxing to the sounds of not college kids running through town, stressed out about finals and stuff - the quiet only last a couple weeks, so cherish it while you can!

Do you have cool events coming up in the future? If you’d like to share, please share with sara@wedentondoit.com

WHAT WE DID: DECEMBER 21ST

will milne December 21, 2015

We always treasure our student-less times in Denton. Scoring a parking space on the square without resorting to one of the secret parking spaces that would have us walking an extra half a block is a great feeling. The 70 degree weather is kinda killing our Christmas-buzz right now, though. Good thing we have Star Wars VII and all of the SW-related photos y'all took to cheer us up.

THE DEN10: DECEMBER, 16TH 2015

will milne December 16, 2015

Happy Holidays, folks. It’s about that time of year where people are scrambling for last minute gifts, reflecting upon their thankfulness throughout the year, and drinking lots of beer (we hear). There’s lots to do in Denton, including shopping events, beer events, and tuba events. With this kind of an action-packed schedule, why would you ever want to meander to Dallas? We’ve got what you want. We’ve got what you need. Oh baby, oh baby.

Do you know about cool things happening in town? You ought to share those with sara@wedentondoit.com
