More Holiday Fun in Houston

For the first time, I watched the TV show "Brothers & Sisters" last night. I have to applaud it for showing ways to embrace both Christmas and Hanukah in one family -- no easy chore. Perhaps more important, I found its message to adults about valuing the true meaning of the holidays (however you celebrate it) wonderful. The show emphasized faith in God, in yourself and in your family members. Watching this show was a refreshing change.

Holiday Fun in Houston:
Friday, 12/15: Holiday Lights in Hermann Park is Houston’s version of “Central Park.” The event begins at 6 pm with the lighting at the Jones Reflection Pool. Children of all ages enjoy the holiday production presented by the Hermann Park Conservancy. Then, Houston families enjoy the lights on weekends throughout the month 6-9 pm. Pack up the kids with bikes, trikes or even roller blades and put that energy to good use. This makes a nice alternative to the usual after-dinner routine. Strollers are welcome.

Until the next nap time...
