An Abileneian Holiday Season

November 9, 2015 Leave a Comment

 

Abilene has its own unique approach to the holidays.  Join us in appreciating the greatness that is Abilene during this special season.

 

There’s nothing like a good chilly Monday in November.

The season opens with Abilene Ballet Theatre’s presentation of the Nutcracker.

Swiftly followed by turkey, pie, napping and then shopping.

The holiday spirit abounds.  You can feel it in the air and people aren’t scared to wish you the best!

Your office has a Christmas party, and yes, someone will post those pics on social media.

The City Sidewalks Parade gets you in the mood for some holiday cheer.

The Paramount’s Christmas classic builds anticipation.

Everyone you know is at the mall getting their Christmas shopping done.  And we mean everyone…

What’s that? Still haven’t checked everything off the list? More Christmas shopping!

…and more Christmas shopping.

The first snow finally graces us, and all is right with the world!

Then comes the second snow (read: ice), the unprepared drivers on the road and the empty shelves at the grocery store as food is hoarded for survival.

Finally, local churches host Christmas Eve candlelight services, and Abilenians breathe a collective sigh of peace, comfort and relief.

There’s nothing we love more than an Abilene Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s.  Here’s to a lovely holiday season!
