79 Days Until Christmas!

Posted on October 7, 2019

TREASURES. TREATS. TRADITION.
YOUR HOLIDAYS START HERE

          
I am not one to wish away October & November while pining away for Christmas Music, Hallmark Movies, Hot Chocolate & Santa… but I am one to start making a list and checking it twice in an effort to be with my family on Christmas Eve instead of at the mall!! And since discovering the San Antonio Christmas Showcase I can make that happen!
I spend one day checking off my list at the Christmas Showcase and I AM DONE!! I can grab a gorgeous wreath to take to my mother-in-law as she graciously hosts, a wooden name train for my new nephew, matching shirts for my sis and I, unique glass cutting boards for my neighbors and the list goes on! Hunting accessories, furniture, candles, handbags, jewelry, pottery, holiday decor & more! AND! While I am there, I can eat delicious food, including wine and tamales, from local vendors or take some to go; and, on top of that, leave with my live poinsettias and Christmas tree!! This show HAS IT ALL!!
This year’s Christmas Showcase is coming up November 23-24, 2019 at The Freeman Expo Hall!
