Families all over the world have Christmas traditions that they look forward to each year - whether it be gift exchanging, decorating the Christmas tree, caroling or anything else, it wouldn't be Christmas without it.
Driving around seeing Christmas lights and displays are one of the finer joys of celebrating Christmas every year. Luckily for us, there are several places in Tyler and East Texas you can go where you can see some of the best outdoor light displays anywhere.
ElfYourself makes an appearance around Christmas each year, and to start the season off right here's one of all your favorite DJs.
'Tis the season to hear those ringing bells of the Salvation Army Red Kettles across East Texas. When you hear those bells, put what you can in the kettle to help those in East Texas who are less fortunate this holiday!

If you’re like me, you've done quite a bit of online shopping in the past week or so. I was actually cyber-shopping out ahead of the game and received one package the day after Thanksgiving. Then I shopped more over the holiday weekend and on Cyber Monday, and there are five more orders on the way.
We've all been there - you read that invitation asking you to attend a Dirty Santa party, but now you've got to come up with a brilliant gift idea. Well, you can worry a little less after reading this list.
6 days ago The Black Friday crowds have dispersed, but it's still expected to be a busy holiday shopping season overall, and the stores will be crowded all the way until Christmas.
Black Friday is in just a few days. The day of massive sales, long lines, and a generally frantic attitude is upon us. Just a day after we all give thanks for all that we have, we crowd in our local stores to rampage for the best deal. During this chaotic day, we need to remember to be kind to those working.
It's beginning to look a LOT like Christmas.
3 weeks ago Watching the movie starring Tom Hanks has become a holiday tradition for many of us, and it will no doubt appear on TV a few times this holiday season. And kids can experience a very real Polar Express right here in East Texas this weekend.
The Texas State Railroad will have the Polar Express running in Palestine, and kids can even wear their PJ's!
It's no secret we live in a commercialized society. Money is involved in almost every aspect of our lives on a daily basis. Black Friday is a perfect example. It's the day stores can practically hit their yearly sales goals in one or two days, thanks to some extreme sales that are surely to bring out the masses to save a few bucks.
It's been a while since I was at the mall and that's where I found myself yesterday afternoon, walking through Broadway Square Mall and there it was, the Salvation
Army Angel Tree! It's right there between Chick-Fil-A and JC Penney and seeing it reminded me that Christmas will be here before you know it.
