I don’t know about you, but my Christmas vacation unofficially starts on Saturday, and I’m excited!!! I love when we have a few extra days beforehand to finish getting ready. Are you ready? I’m also hoping to make it out to some of these great events going on. We will be attending The Nutcracker on Saturday (one of my favorite traditions), and hopefully heading over to Carillon at some point. If you love Christmas movies, there are plenty of viewings around town: The Grinch, The Polar Express, It’s A Wonderful Life…. What’s your all-time favorite holiday movie?
