If you’re still wary about visiting places or you don’t have a car, there are still ways to enjoy the Season or connect with Santa. This most important part about Christmas is spending time with your family, and you can still do that, for the most part. Make family time the most important Christmas event of the year.

Have a Merry Christmas and, like so many others, look forward to 2021 and the outlook on a Happy New Year!
