The first weekend of December was a busy one here in Berryville!  For starters, the parking meters in town take a Holiday break and businesses and individuals are encouraged to sign up for and participate in the Holiday Parking Meter Decoration Contest.  We, of course, decided to try our hand at this.  Our theme may not have been traditional, but it fit with our sense of humor:

The winners will be announced on December 14, and we’re hoping we win a major award!  Sorry, I HAD to say that!

On Friday night, Berryville lit the town Christmas Tree, and the next day was the Berryville annual Christmas Parade!

We’ve been doing some decorating here at Waypoint House as well in preparation for the Holidays.  Our window candles glow every night of the year, but now the front porch has been made even more festive with the addition of garland and lights.  We’ve also brought in the Christmas Tree and the Front Parlor looks spectacular!

That’s all for now, but I’m sure we’ll be posting more in the coming weeks!
