Christmas in Harrison



Christmas has officially started and what better way to get things going than a parade! On Dec. 5th I was invited to be a part of the annual Christmas in Harrison. I've never been in a parade at this time of year and let me tell you...it's cold! But a very nice lady named "Muffett", the editor of Harrison's local paper The Village Voice, let me borrow her beautiful white fur coat! It kept me very warm, thank you Muffett! After the parade, all of the local businesses opened their doors to the public for fun activities like gingerbread man decorating, swag making, pony rides, horse draw carriage rides, hot chocolate, and visits with Santa! Local B&B's also allowed people in to check out their hospitable rooms and great service. Greenwood Manor Inn is my favorite by far. It could be because my parents are running the house! But it is still a gorgeous place and I'm sure if you stayed there, you would have a blast:) Check it out on the web! Later in the day they had a huge tree lighting and another parade with every float decorated with thousands of lights! It was snowing as well which made everything even more beautiful. I love this time of year and highly recommend going to Christmas in Harrison next year, it's a ton of fun!
