We certainly can't complain; it's always so much fun to put up holiday decorations throughout the house and go pick out a Christmas tree. Shopping for friends and family has been on the to-do list as well, along with festive gatherings for work and our community organizations.
We celebrated with a Merry Mixer for the SIAR Young Professionals Network last Thursday, which had a great turnout and even had a guest appearance from Evansville's Mayor Lloyd Winnecke! Andrea gave a wonderful speech, as the chair and founder of the group, highlighting this first year for the organization and outlining what we have in store for next year.
Chelsea attended a holiday "mini-meeting" gathering for The Junior League of Evansville and also went to the Evansville Philharmonic's Guild's holiday luncheon. The group was treated to an abbreviated performance of The Nutcracker. If you will be in Evansville this weekend, we strongly encourage you to get out and go to one of The Nutcracker performances at The Victory theater. Your choices are either 7 p.m. Saturday or 2 p.m. Sunday. The dancers were incredible and the Philharmonic Orchestra will be playing Tchaikovsky's music live to accompany the ballet. We are so fortunate to have these performances in Evansville to celebrate this special time of year. Tickets can be purchased through the Evansville Philharmonic Orchestra's website.
In the midst of all of these fun activities, we have been working hard! If anyone tells you no one moves during the holidays, they need to come spend a week with us. We talked about how thankful we are for our business in the Thanksgiving post, but it is worth saying again how much we appreciate the wonderful clients we get to work with and help navigate through the buying or selling process.
Before wrapping up, we would like to share the December Community Events Calendar that includes all the upcoming holiday-themed activities around Evansville and also mention that if you're able, please consider donating to one of our local homeless shelters, food pantries, or non-profits this season. There are a lot of families in our community that will benefit from your generosity, whether you are able to give some canned goods, kids' Christmas gifts, or even your time to serve a meal or help a family going through a tough time.
We wish you all a very happy holiday season! Cheers!
