Our Advent and Christmas seasons have been very busy, and a soon return to work and school is exciting. Nonetheless, here are the events and people who filled our time.
We began with a significant Christmas light display that is ever growing. Fred has yet to put up more than 3/4 of our lights yet he is now vowing to have a full display for Christmas 2012 with a Halloween preview with synchronized music and lights.

We visited Williamsburg VA for a couple days, going to both Busch Gardens Christmas Town and Colonial Williamsburg. Unfortunately, it rained most of the day we were at Christmas Town, but the low crowds made it much more comfortable than our first visit on the day after Thanksgiving (which turned out to be a mess, but thanks go to Busch Gardens for giving us the 2nd visit free). Colonial Williamsburg was fun and educational even though we previous had visited often when we had an annual membership.
We spent Christmas Eve through the 27th with Sara’s mom and stepfather in Arlington VA, before coming back to Richmond.
The rest of our Christmas was filming all of these music videos (we’re thinking of forming a dance and singing troupe).
